If you want to be loved,
Baby, you've got to love me, too
If you want to be loved,
Baby, you've got to love me, too
Oh yeah, 'cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

If you want to be kissed,
Well, you've gotta kiss me, too
Oh yeah, if you want to be kissed,
Well, you gotta kiss me, too, oh yeah
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

Well, fair exchange bears no robbery,
And the whole world will know that it's true
Understanding solves all problems, baby,
That's why I'm telling you

If you want to be hugged,
Well, you gotta hug me, too, oh yeah
If you want to be hugged,
Well, you've gotta hug me, too, oh yeah
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

If you know you can't take it,
Then baby, why try to give it?
If you know you can't take it,
Then baby, why try to give it?
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

Well, fair exchange bears no robbery,
And the whole world will know that it's true
Understanding solves all problems, baby,
That's why I'm telling you

If you want to be hugged,
Well, you gotta hug me, too, oh yeah,
If you want to be hugged,
Baby, you gotta hug me, too, oh yeah
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair
'Cause I ain't for no one-sided love affair

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
