Only truth can make you see
Only truth can make you love me
Only truth, smile on your face
Only love can take your place

Let me say

Time, time, we need love and time
Only the truth can tell of this
Time, time, we need love and time
Time, time, time, oh

Only the truth can let you go
Only the truth can hear you love me so
Only the truth can make you see
Tell me the truth if you love me, let me say it

Time, time, can it be reached?
Can you cheat time
True, let's all sing that break
I said

Time, time, all we need is time
Time, time, let me hear you
Time, time, all we need is time
I wanna be so big, they said

Time, can it reach, yeah
All of the love and all [Incomprehensible]
Say it matters

Time, time, all we need is time
Time, time, all we need is time
Time, time, all we need is time...

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
