Don't know where you are
How near or how far
Willing to go
It's time for the show

You learn your part, favorite part
It's when you're my lover

Don't know where to go
Production is slow
Have life as a star
Contained in a jar

If I lay my head down on your knee
Pretend I'm your lover

So many things I want you to think
Think about me
The things you don't see
Things we take away

Baby, look at my face
No one can lie like a lover

If I turn away
Baby, look at my face
No one can lie like a lover

All of my life
It's all in my guy, yeah
Nothings takes me higher
Yeah, yeah

Touching the sun
Is all that I want, yeah
No one takes me higher, yeah
No, no

If there's a way
Out of this maze
Hand me the key
I'll set me free

Touching the sun, all that I want
Is to be your lover

Touching the sun, all that I want
Is to be your lover, yeah

Touching the sun, all that I want
Is to be your lover, yeah
Yeah, yeah

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh
To be your lover

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh
Yeah, to be your lover

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh
To be your lover

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh
To be your lover

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh
To be your lover

La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh
La la la la, oh, oh

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”

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Amazing

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.
