I woke up to the sound
Of a man who's always been
But never been around and he told me
How to change my ways
And stop with the childish games
So I told the man no
I'm never ever going to change
This's who I am
Going to feel my own pain
Haven't been here in years
And it's not your choice
Going to do what I want
Cuz I'm not a little boy

I get higher, I get higher
I'm going to set this house on fire
Shut off the lights I hear your sound
I'm locking the door as you fall to the ground
I get higher, I get higher
The sun is shining I'm on fire
I walk the streets I hear no sounds
My shiny blue eyes turn to painful brown

In the park where I sat down
Saw the payphones ringing
So I answered the sound
I need another quarter
Man keeps on talking
Don't know where it went
Must of lost it in my pocket

I get higher, I get higher
I'm going to set this house on fire
Shut off the lights I hear your sound
I'm locking the door as you fall to the ground

And I get higher, oh
And I get higher, alirght
I can't take it
I can't take it
I can't take it
And I can't take it all

Alright
Come on now
Yeah, oh
Here we go

I get higher, I get higher
I'm going to set this house on fire
Shut off the lights and I hear your sound
I'm locking the door as you fall to the ground
I get higher, I get higher
I'm going to set this house on fire
I walk the streets I hear no sounds
My shiny blue eyes turn to painful brown

Oh, oh yeah
Oh, alright

I can't take it
I can't take it
I can't take it
And I can't take it all

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.

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.
