What time you coming out?
We started losing light
I'll never make it right
If you don't wander off
I'm so excited for the night
All we need's my bike and your enormous house
You said some day we might
When I'm closer to your height,
Till then we'll knock around and see
If you're all I need
Don't you see me I
I think I'm falling, I'm falling for you
And don't you need me I
I think I'm falling, I'm falling for you
On this night, and in this light
I think I'm falling (I think I'm falling), I'm falling for you
And maybe you, change your mind
(I think I'm falling, I think I'm falling)
I'm caught on your coat again
You said, "Oh no, it's fine"
I read between the lines and touched your leg again (again)
I'll take it one day at a time
Soon you will be mine, oh, but I want you now (I want you now)
When the smoke is in your eyes, you look so alive
Do you fancy sitting down with me maybe
'Cause you're all I need
According to your heart
My place is not deliberate
Feeling of your arms
I don't want to be your friend, I want to kiss your neck
Don't you see me I
I think I'm falling, I'm falling for you
And don't you need me I
I think I'm falling, I'm falling for you
On this night, and in this light
I think I'm falling (I think I'm falling), I'm falling for you
And maybe you, change your mind

    I think the song is about someone who loves a girl who attracts him by the fact that she looks happy (you look so alive) he feels for her something beyond friendship, there is no doubt that he is interested in being her partner. He feels she's not the most interested cause in the song he tells that she told him "until then we'll knock around and see, if you're all I need" and he asks her "you don’t see me?" When he falls for her she doesn’t notice at all he hopes she will change her mind

    My Opinion

    Fallingforyou might be a song for someone you've just met, though, I think it can be used for any time in your relationship... You can see it as when they've dated long enough for one side of it to be needing the other person. As well, once you've broken up with your girlfriend or boyfriend, you can also see that it applis for this situation, since "maybe you'll change your mind" can act as "hey, don't break up with me... Look at all the things I've done to prove I love you so bad". Or at least this is how I can identify myself with this song. As well, you can see he's confident about him making the girl his girlfriend at some point, tho, once you end a relationship, you can also feel this "i want you now, i want you now" feeling... Specially when you just "give some time" or a "break". You can give this song several meanings, and I hope you like this.

    I think it could be about 2 people who have acknowledged mutual feelings exist, but for one reason or another can’t be together. There is a subtle flirtation with the touching, and the thought of something more crosses their minds, but it never materializes.

    I think it might be missed that she is a bit older than him. Stating if he gets as tall as... Like an adolescent boy with a crush on the family babysitter who he sees living bright and shinny years.... But he is just too young.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.

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.
