He is now to be among you
At the calling of your hearts
Rest assured this troubadour
Is acting on His part

The union of your spirits here
Has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is Love, there is Love

Well, a man shall leave his mother
And a woman leave her home
They shall travel on to where
The two shall be as one

As it was in the beginning
Is now and till the end
Woman draws her life from man
And gives it back again
There is Love, there is Love

Well, there must have been a reason
For becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings it here,
Or Love that brings you life?

(Is it law that brings you here,
Or Love that gives you life?)

For if Loving is the answer,
Then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something
That you've never seen before?
Oh, there is Love,
Oh, there's Love.

Oh, the marriage (union) of your spirits here
Has caused Him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is Love, there is Love.

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.
