Melody of Love (Wanna Be Loved) [Original Version]

Donna Summer

I always stayed away from love
Afraid of what might might happen
'Til I thought I heard a sound above
Singing through my very own heart
Was a melody I'd never heard
Like birds singing loud to the sky

Never dreamed that true love would help me find my way
Didn't know how deep I'd fallen
Until you rescued you rescued me
When suddenly strings began
I heard the melody again and again and again
The sound of music flowing through my head
So rare, I'm walking on air

Melody of love, sing that song for me, yeah
I want to hear somebody sing
(Wanna be loved)
Melody of love, take me away

One lonely night you up and danced into my dreams
Baby, you set my heart on fire
So I've been burning and burning ever since, yeah
When suddenly strings began
I heard the melody again and again and again
The sound of trumpets flowing through my head
So rare, I'm walking on air

Melody of love, sing that song for me, yeah
I want to hear somebody sing
Melody of love, oh take me away

Melody of love, set me free, yeah
I want to hear somebody sing
Melody of love, oh take me away

Melody of love
Sing that song for me
I want to hear somebody sing
Melody of love
Oh, take me away, yeah

Melody of love
Oh, set me free, yeah
Somebody sing
Melody of love
Oh, take me away

Melody of love
Sing that song for me
I want to hear somebody sing
Melody of love

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
