It's never gonna work
I don't know what I'm doing in here
My innards go bezerk
Yeah, every time your voice gets near
But when I get under control
I see you ache for it and all
I'll get some sugar for your bowl
I've got some lemon for your soul

Some twinkle for your eye
I'm
getting sick of being this alone
They think it's not right
Fine
Each to their very little own

(Chorus)
I want you now
I don't care how
We're both too young to be sitting around
I want you now
I want you now

You make me sure
You make me live
and that's what's more than I ever could give
I don't know how
But I want you now


So Timmy goes to school
And Jimmy goes to work all day
But we just hang around
And think of clever things to say
But you deserve to get your wish
But you don't know what it is
First it was that and now it's this
But there's one thing that you've missed

Together we'll be fine
Fine
Least we can say we won't be lonely
Fine
Fine
I'll never wanna be alone

(Chorus)

I want you now
I don't care how
We're both too young
To sit around
I want you now
I want you now-ow-ow-ow
Wow-ow-ow-ow

Yeah, yeah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-eah

(Chorus)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

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.

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”

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.
