Into the fire on my own, hey
I know I won't see your face again, hey
Are you sitting there alone, hey-ey
Are you thinking like me, all the laughing times
Of all the sad and loving times?
Everything that's left of us
Is fading away

Promise me to think of us, as a time so wonderful
Promise me to think of us, still bright, still colourful
Promise me to look back at us, as a time in your life, you enjoyed

Surrounded by flames everywhere
What I used to be, I'm not even there
The absence of you is killing me, hey-ey
Are you thinking like me, of the laughing times
Of all the sad and loving times?
Everything that's left of us
Is fading away

Promise me to think of us, as a time so wonderful
Promise me to think of us, still bright, still colourful
Promise me to look back at us, as a time in your life, you enjoyed

Promise me, promise me
I will be fine without you
Promise me, promise me
Once more in my life to see you
Promise me, promise me
I will be fine without you
Promise me, promise me
Once more in my life to see you

Can you promise me?
To see you
Can you promise me?

Promise me to think of us, as a time so wonderful, so wonderful
Promise me to think of us, still bright, still colorful, still colorful
Promise me to look back at us, as a time in your life, you enjoyed

Promise me to think of us, as a time so wonderful (so wonderful)
Promise me to think of us, still bright, still colorful (still colorful)
Promise me to look back at us, as a time in your life, you enjoyed

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.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. 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.
