In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Sin querer, te lastimé
Sin querer
Te abandoné
Sólo sé que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Necesito tu perdón
Necesito verte hoy
Sólo sé que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Si al final, siempre el tiempo se va
Donde caen los días
Si al final
Abrazarse al dolor
No nos deja brillar
Dime que será
Qué será de los dos
Cuando pase la vida?
Algo ocurrirá
Tengo una sensación
Una carta guardadda
Un buen signo del sol
Nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
No me digas mi amor
Que te falta valor
Porque nada es para siempre
Si pudieramos hablar
Si pudieramos dejarlo
Vos sabés que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Otra vez me equivoqué
Otra vez te abandoné
Vos sabés que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
El azar nos permite cambiar
Nuestro incierto destino
El temor que nos puede vencer
Sin mirar más allá
Yo creo que al final
Nunca sé dónde voy
Pero sigo un camino
Algo ocurrirá, tengo la sensación
Una carta marcada
Un buen signo del sol
Nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
No me digas mi amor
Que te falta valor, porque nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
Mada es para siempre
Si tu risa escapó
Si no escuchas mi voz
Sabés, nada es para siempre
Todo vuelve a mí
Una vez más
Todo vuelve a mí, una vez más
Una vez más, me aliviarás, me aliviarás
Todo vuelve a mí una vez más
Todo vuelve a mí, una vez más
Tan cerca de mí, un vez más
Sin querer
Te abandoné
Sólo sé que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Necesito tu perdón
Necesito verte hoy
Sólo sé que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Si al final, siempre el tiempo se va
Donde caen los días
Si al final
Abrazarse al dolor
No nos deja brillar
Dime que será
Qué será de los dos
Cuando pase la vida?
Algo ocurrirá
Tengo una sensación
Una carta guardadda
Un buen signo del sol
Nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
No me digas mi amor
Que te falta valor
Porque nada es para siempre
Si pudieramos hablar
Si pudieramos dejarlo
Vos sabés que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
Otra vez me equivoqué
Otra vez te abandoné
Vos sabés que yo no sé
Cuidarte de mi amor
El azar nos permite cambiar
Nuestro incierto destino
El temor que nos puede vencer
Sin mirar más allá
Yo creo que al final
Nunca sé dónde voy
Pero sigo un camino
Algo ocurrirá, tengo la sensación
Una carta marcada
Un buen signo del sol
Nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
No me digas mi amor
Que te falta valor, porque nada es para siempre
Nada es para siempre
Mada es para siempre
Si tu risa escapó
Si no escuchas mi voz
Sabés, nada es para siempre
Todo vuelve a mí
Una vez más
Todo vuelve a mí, una vez más
Una vez más, me aliviarás, me aliviarás
Todo vuelve a mí una vez más
Todo vuelve a mí, una vez más
Tan cerca de mí, un vez más

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
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.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"

Magical

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.
