This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
I am here to testify
That you're the only one I belong to
I don't know where to start
It turned into an art
Not to show the world that it was you
Who made me realize not to compromise
The fact that you and I should need
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
Don't know why I feel so insecure
I never understood what it stood for
I gotta make sure that blindness won't stop me again
I can't sit and wait anymore
You made me realize not to compromise
The fact that you and I should need
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
It's gonna be bombastic love
Everything is gonna be alright
When I'm yours and you are mine
It's gonna be fantastic love
When I wake up everything is still the same
And you don't even know my name
(I know it's gonna be)
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
That you're the only one I belong to
I don't know where to start
It turned into an art
Not to show the world that it was you
Who made me realize not to compromise
The fact that you and I should need
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
Don't know why I feel so insecure
I never understood what it stood for
I gotta make sure that blindness won't stop me again
I can't sit and wait anymore
You made me realize not to compromise
The fact that you and I should need
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love
So fantastic
Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
It's gonna be bombastic love
Everything is gonna be alright
When I'm yours and you are mine
It's gonna be fantastic love
When I wake up everything is still the same
And you don't even know my name
(I know it's gonna be)
Bombastic Love

Where I'm completley yours and you are mine
And It's gonna be exactly like in a movie
When we fall in love for the first time
I know we're gonna get, know we're gonna get get
Bombastic Love

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
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.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
Okay to the person who said this song was about a one night stand has got to be a complete idiot!When she says..."When I wake up, everything is still the same And you don't even know my name" She is saying...when she wakes up she is still in love with him but yet still he wont give her the time of day and doesnt know who she is or even want to know who she is! Are you that blind that you cant see that.And if any of you have ever seen driven britney spears or actually found out who and what she stands for you wouldnt be talking the shit you are. The only reason you people dont like her is because chances are she looks a hell of a lot better than you do...and is actually doing something with her life unlike you who has to sit and type shit on a computer about a very awesome singer who has worked to get where she was!Remember all this shit you are saying when its you standing in the spotlight! Luv,Emily
