There's a little girl that I
Am madly in love with
She's only seventeen and she's
Testing my patience
She knows what I want and
I know what she needs
But we both know that we should not proceed
Father please forgive me for
I've sinned again
And again and again and again and again

She's a victim of the times
Daddy's tryin' to find
A way to keep his baby in line
He's got it all figured out
Hell keep her locked in the house
And won't let her see or hear no evil
Don't you know the more you
Push the more she runs?
Run away run away run away run away
These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end
These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end

I promised her the world and
She ate every word
She left her life in a sudden urge
She came along for the ride
Now she's lost she starts to cry
The big bad wolf is at her door
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest motherfucker of all?
It ain't me it ain't me it
Ain't me it ain't me

There's no going back now
It's way too late
Her innocence is lost now nothing remains

These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end
These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end

These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end
These are the fairy tales that
Don't have happy endings
These are the fairy tales that
Never ever ever end

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Holiday
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.

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.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

Blue
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.
