"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.
"This song is for you, wherever you are.....Aventura"
I dunno what's going on with my baby
Que ya no me quiere ver
She doesn't want to talk to me
She left an early morning without reason
Sin dejarme un a cartita or a clue where she might be at
I don't think that I deserve what you have done
I don't sleep at night
And I don't eat esperando for your love
Cuando volveras, when will you come back
Ay dime mami a donde tu estaras
When will you come back, cuando volveras
Dime morena ay a donde andaras
Tell me why tell me why
Me haces esto mujer
If I always loved you
Ven why vuelve otra vez(2x)
"Let me find out...
Oye que feeling mami"
My heart is in pain and I need your love
Oh please call the doctor
why que vuelva mi morena
I miss her day and night
Nothing as changed
And the only thing I have is on the wall her pictured frame
Cuando volveras, when will you come back
Ay dime mami a donde tu andaras
When will you come back,cuando volveras
Ay dime baby if you're ever coming back
Tell me why tell me why
Me haces esto mujer
If i always loved you
Ven why vuelve otra vez
You are doing this to me
If I always loved you,
Ven why vuelve otra vez.
"uuuhhh, when are you going to come back boo, you know I stay missing you"
Cuando volveras...
you know I love you,with all my love
and now I miss you, with all my heart
'cause you're my baby, you're my Herat...
Cuando volveras(2x)... aaaaaahhhh...
!Morena!

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
