Quand je me tourne vers mes souvenirs
Je revois la maison où j'ai grandi
Il me revient des tas de choses
Je vois des roses dans un jardin
Là où vivaient des arbres maintenant
La ville est là
Et la maison, les fleurs que j'aimais tant
N'existent plus

Ils savaient rire, tous mes amis
Ils savaient si bien partager mes jeux
Mais tout doit finir pourtant dans la vie
Et j'ai dû partir, les larmes aux yeux

Mes amis me demandaient "pourquoi pleurer?"
Découvrir le monde vaut mieux que rester
Tu trouveras toutes les choses qu'ici
On ne voit pas
Toute une ville qui s'endort la nuit
Dans la lumière

Quand j'ai quitté ce coin de mon enfance
Je savais déjà que j'y laissais mon cœur
Tous mes amis, oui, enviaient ma chance
Mais moi, je pense encore à leur bonheur
À l'insouciance qui les faisait rire
Et il me semble que je m'entends leur dire
Je reviendrai un jour, un beau matin
Parmi vos rires
Oui, je prendrai un jour le premier train
Du souvenir

Le temps a passé, et me revoilà
Cherchant en vain la maison que j'aimais
Où sont les pierres et où sont les roses?
Toutes ces choses auxquelles je tenais
D'elles et de mes amis plus une trace
D'autres gens, d'autres maisons ont volé leurs places
Là où vivaient des arbres maintenant
La ville est là
Et la maison, où est-elle, la maison
Où j'ai grandi?

Je ne sais pas où est ma maison
La maison où j'ai grandi
Où est ma maison?
Qui sait où est ma maison?
Ma maison, où est ma maison?

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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/

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.
