The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
Can I talk to You
I think you need to hear what I got to say
So Please
Listen
I Pray for better days, days when you & I be closer,
My mind Focus on treating you right
And not searching for wrong
But wrong love will be the final words
And suffering draw the curtains
And the show will last till life was gone
And we exchange these simple words.
I wanna open up to you
And tell you what I've been through
I want you to open up to me
And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all to you
(Listen)
I pray that we don't change
And get caught up in the current
Of people who don't mean us well
Or wishing us ending thoughts
Living life in a big city and all of its distraction
Premier, fake tears, and falsely offers shoulders
Separately unavailable
I wanna open up to you
And tell you what I've been through
I want you to open up to me
And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all to you
(Listen)
At least summonly swear, to remain a pair
With truth and honestly, from meâ?¦.to youâ?¦
Leaving behind, the liars and the fools
(Lady I promise I will always)
Open up to you
(Oh Yeah, can you feel it baby. I can)
(Oh yeah, I like this)
(Let me sing it for you)
I wanna open up to you
And tell you what I've been through
I want you to open up to me
And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all â?¦to you
I think you need to hear what I got to say
So Please
Listen
I Pray for better days, days when you & I be closer,
My mind Focus on treating you right
And not searching for wrong
But wrong love will be the final words
And suffering draw the curtains
And the show will last till life was gone
And we exchange these simple words.
I wanna open up to you
And tell you what I've been through
I want you to open up to me
And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all to you
(Listen)
I pray that we don't change
And get caught up in the current
Of people who don't mean us well
Or wishing us ending thoughts
Living life in a big city and all of its distraction
Premier, fake tears, and falsely offers shoulders
Separately unavailable
I wanna open up to you
And tell you what I've been through
I want you to open up to me
And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all to you
(Listen)
At least summonly swear, to remain a pair
With truth and honestly, from meâ?¦.to youâ?¦

And share with me a dream
I'm gonna live my life for you
And make your dreams come true
So I dedicate my all â?¦to you

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.
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
