Baby, baby, baby
From the day I saw you
I really, really wanted to catch your eye
Somethin' special 'bout you
I must really like you
'Cause not a lot of guys are worth my time, oh
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
It's getting kind of crazy
'Cause you are taking over my mind

And it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
I swear, it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)

Oh, baby, baby, baby
I see us on our first date
You're doing everything that makes me smile
And when we had our first kiss
It happened on a Thursday
Ooh, it set my soul on fire
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
I can't wait for the first time
My imagination's running wild

It feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
And I swear it, baby, it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)

I'm sayin', he don't even know what he's doin' to me
Got me feelin' all crazy inside
I'm feelin' like, oh
Doing more than I've ever done
For anyone's attention
Take notice of what's in front of you
'Cause did I mention (oh)
You bout' to miss a good thing?
And you'll never know how good it feels
To have all of my affection
And you'll never get a chance to experience my lovin' (oh)
'Cause my lovin' feels like

Ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go)
And I swear (will you ever know?)
It feels like
Ooh
You don't my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go) oh
(Will you ever know?)

Will you ever know it?
No, no, no, no, no
No, no
Will you ever know it?

Well, I'ma have to just go 'head and call this boy
Hello?
Can I speak to, to Michael?
Oh hey, how you doing?
Uh, I feel kinda silly doing this, but, uh
This is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th and Lennox
You know, the one with the braids?
Yeah, well, I see you on Wednesdays all the time
You come in every Wednesday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special with the hot chocolate
My manager be tripping and stuff
Talking 'bout we gotta use water but
I always use some milk and cream for you 'cause
I think you're kinda sweet
Anyway, you always got on some fly blue suit
And your cuff links are shining all bright
So, what you do? Oh, word? Yeah, that's interesting
Look, man, I mean, I don't wanna waste your time, but
I know girls don't usually do this
But I was wondering if maybe we could get together
Outside the restaurant one day?
You know 'cause I do look a lot different outside my work clothes and
I mean, we could just go across the street to the park right here
Wait, hold up, my, my cell phone breaking up, hold up
Can you hear me now? Yeah
So, what day did you say?
Oh, yeah, Thursday's perfect, man

And it feels like ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go) baby
(Will you ever know?) Baby, I swear, it's like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?) No, no, no
And it feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
And I swear on my mother and father it feels like, ooh
You don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
