This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
i was born by an old streetlight
where the men lean out of
their windows at night
and i was a lead in the orphan choir,
and i sang with all my might
until i grew up
too high then oh,
all the notes i used to play
on the double bass in the b-list ballet
with only the night bugs to lead me home
with their sad-luck serenade
the rain was never ending,
the sadness in my heart
would light and glow in the dark
oh this will never change,
time just wears a prettier face
i'm book smart, street stupid
so don't look for me in confession booth,
i'm with my paints and my pens
and my dry vermouth
trying to uncover
some small truth
with these cards close to my chest
the rain was never ending
the sadness in my heart
would light and glow in the dark
oh, this will never change
time just wears a prettier face
i'm book smart, street stupid
the rain still never ending
the wonder in my heart
would light and glow in
it still lights and glows in the dark
where the men lean out of
their windows at night
and i was a lead in the orphan choir,
and i sang with all my might
until i grew up
too high then oh,
all the notes i used to play
on the double bass in the b-list ballet
with only the night bugs to lead me home
with their sad-luck serenade
the rain was never ending,
the sadness in my heart
would light and glow in the dark
oh this will never change,
time just wears a prettier face
i'm book smart, street stupid
so don't look for me in confession booth,
i'm with my paints and my pens
and my dry vermouth
trying to uncover
some small truth
with these cards close to my chest
the rain was never ending
the sadness in my heart
would light and glow in the dark
oh, this will never change
time just wears a prettier face
i'm book smart, street stupid
the rain still never ending
the wonder in my heart
would light and glow in
it still lights and glows in the dark

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.
Amazing

Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
I first heard this song in an independent music store, and the song just gave me this great feeling. It is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. The song though itself, its hard to say what the lyrics mean, but I think that she wrote it very well.
