Girl, who is that institution over there?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Come, go back to the islands, irie, man
Brr, hey, Puerto Rico, le grand Bahamas
The French island of St. Martinique
Parlez-vous Français?
Oui, je parle Français
Monsieur, tu me plais, qui moi?
Ooh, baby (ooh, baby)

I've seen you hangin' out
Lookin' like you know what life's about, uh-huh
Laughin', jivin' with your friends
Baby, that ain't where the world ends, oh yeah

I'm layin' my love on you
You'll be feelin' somethin' brand new, oh yes, you will
Gonna hold you tight with all my might
Squeeze you right, whatcha wanna do tonight?
Yeah-ah-ah

I'm gonna hold you in the afternoon
Tease you from the sun
Dancin' 'neath the island moon
We'll go on and on

Yeah, ain't nobody ever loved you
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah, oh, baby, now
Oh, ain't nobody ever loved you, boy
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah, uh-huh

Hey, drag a comb across your hair
Change your shirt, we're going somewhere, ain't we, baby?
Huh, I'll throw a little lipstick on
Check the mirror twice and we're gone, yeah-ah

I believe in rain
We can bring the heat up again, oh, yes, we can
I'm gonna take my time and treat you fine
Baby, baby, baby, I'm makin' you mine, oh tonight, boy

Hear the people laugh and sing, hey-hey
Right outside your door
Somethin' great is happenin'
And you can be sure

Oh, ain't nobody else could love you
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah, uh-huh
Ain't nobody ever loved you
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah

Wait, ah, oh
Look out now, yeah

Ain't nobody love you, no
Like I'm gonna love you, hey hey
Ain't nobody love you, no (oh, the Islands, I love them, man)
Like I'm gonna love you, hey hey (the tread wings they blowing the wind and it feels so good like a carress that falls)

Hear the people laugh and sing, hey hey
Right outside your door, hey man
Somethin' great is happenin'
And you can be sure, oh

Nobody else can love you
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, baby
Ain't nobody ever loved you
Like I'm gonna love you, yeah, yeah
I know, I know, I know

Nobody loved you, no (you ain't got no lady to get in my way, now baby)
Like I'm gonna love you, hey hey (ooh-ooh-ooh, oh, baby now, yeah)
Ain't nobody love you, no (ain't nobody socked it to ya)
Like I'm gonna love you, hey hey (like I'm gonna love you, baby, now)

Ain't nobody love you, no (monsieur)
Like I'm gonna love you, hey hey (tu me plais, tu me)
Ain't nobody love you, no

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.
