This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Walk away, if you want to
It's okay, if you need to
You can run but you can never hide
From the shadow that's creepin' up beside you
There's a magic runnin' through your soul
But you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea, yea
Take the time
To think about it
Just walk the line, you know you just can't fight it
Take a look around you'll see what you can find
Like the fire that's burnin' up inside me
Now there's a magic runnin' through your soul
But you can't have it all, no
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea, yea
Oh, ho
Oh, there's a magic running through your soul
But you, you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea baby, two steps behind
Oh sugar, two steps behind
It's okay, if you need to
You can run but you can never hide
From the shadow that's creepin' up beside you
There's a magic runnin' through your soul
But you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea, yea
Take the time
To think about it
Just walk the line, you know you just can't fight it
Take a look around you'll see what you can find
Like the fire that's burnin' up inside me
Now there's a magic runnin' through your soul
But you can't have it all, no
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea, yea
Oh, ho
Oh, there's a magic running through your soul
But you, you can't have it all
Whatever you do
I'll be two steps behind you
Wherever you go
And I'll be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around
I'll be two steps behind
Yea baby, two steps behind
Oh sugar, two steps behind

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Holiday
Bee Gees
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
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.
If you take this song literally, it WILL come off stalkerish, however, the band, i think, intented for the song to be understood metaphorically. meaning, that he'llalways be there for her, a.k.a two steps behind, and that she should realise it, "take a minute of her precious time... to turn around"
great acoustic hit, good shit
That's what I think. If it weren't Joe singing and like a Quasimodo-it would be a "stalker" song...Love the acoustic it's challenging but not hard to play. :)
It's about Christ. That's what I take from it.
originally a b-side, then featured in one of those arnold schwartzenegger movies. awesome song, i love the lyrics. "it only takes a minute of your precious time to turn around and i'll be two steps behind"
Something tells me this song waws about Rick Allen.. I could be wrong but everything just seems that way.. also there is no drums at all... usually in a ballad there is a little bass drum beat... <br /> Walk away if you want to<br /> it's ok, if you need to<br /> you can run, but you can never hide<br /> See my shadow come creeping up beside you<br /> There's a magic running through your soul<br /> But you can't have it all<br /> <br /> Sounds like they are saying you can walk away from music if you want, but if he leaves its gonna eat him up inside because its what he loves. and there is magic running through his soul... He lived through such a bad accident. but he still cant have it all.. thats just my take on the lyrics<br /> <br />
Yeah, this was an awesome song. However, I guess by the time they wrote it, they had already grown up if you know what I mean. I guess eventually its not about the sex, drugs, and riffs anymore, they want to teach a lesson with their music. As a 16 year old, nothing could be more horrifying!
I love this song. . .It's one of my favorites from Def Leppard. . .Great lyrics I think.
This is a perfect song to chill out too. I don't think it was the end of their wild days just another side to them.
This song is again really pretty. They know how to write a ballad.
I'm 14 and I just saw them in Concert, the Rock of Ages concert; they had us sing along with us. Joe Elliot has an amazing voice.

I THINK IT WAS THE TIME WHEN THEY WERE STARTING FADE AWAY,INFACT RETRO ACTIVE WAS NOT A VERY HIT ALBUM BUT THIS SONG WAS AND I THINK THEY HAVE BECOME MORE MATURED WITH THIS SONG
