All I want to do is love you
I just want to take you there

Baby, I don't want to argue
Don't even want to fight
I just want to love you
And hold you all the night
The message from the party
Nothing to do with how
Try to keep it happy
Then depress yourself to cry
All I want to do is love you

We've got to move on up
We've got to move on up

All I want to do is love you
(Oh oh oh, hey, hey, hey)
I just want to take you there, yeah
(Hey, hey, hey)

The world is trying to make us
Go against our own will
There's too many mountains
Grown up from a hill
Just take nothing less
Than the second best
"Do not obey"
What most people say
'Cause you can pass the test
All I want to do is love you
Baby, we've got to move on up
We've got to move on up

All I want to do is love you
(Oh oh oh)
I just want to take you there
(Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)

All I want to do is love you
(Oh oh oh, hey, hey, hey)
It feels like I'm already there
(Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)

The world is trying to make us
Go against our own will
It's early in our language
Of how the human feels

I just want to love you
I just want to cry
I just want to love you
I just want, I just want
I just want to love you
I just want to cry
I just want to love you

(Hey, hey)
All I want to do is love you
(Oh oh oh, hey, hey, hey)
It feels like I'm already there
(Yeah yeah, yeah yeah)

Son
Tres mil razones para darte mi amor
Tres mil razones para darte el corazón
Tres mil razones para darte mi amor
Tres mil razones para darte el corazón

Son
Tres mil razones para darte mi amor
Tres mil razones para darte el corazón
Tres mil razones para darte mi amor
Tres mil razones para darte el corazón

    the last bit in spanish is

    Son 3000 razones para darte mi amor (3000 reasons to give you my love) 3000 razones para darte el corazón (3000 reasons to give you the heart) 3000 razones para darte mi amor 3000 razones para darte el corazón

    I can't vouch for this though, cause I just found it on the internet! This last minute and a half is my favourite part.

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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/

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
