The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Remeber last night at that party at your house?
Somethin went down after you passed out on the couch.
I can't recall, specific times, events or even the place
But all in all, your mom fell in love with my face
And when i woke up i was in her bed all a alone
After all we drank how was i suppossed to have known?
Your mom
Wanted me bad
Does this make me
Your step-dad
so sonny boy
have you done your chores
just get outta the house
cause i'm gonna score, with your mom
Hey im not to blame shes the one who came onto me
After i look back i thinks it really funny
that your little brothers first words ever were to me
And ill never forget the look on his face when he called me daddy
Now whats gonna happen since im a part of the family
can you understand that im your dad try to find a way to see
Your mom
Wanted me bad
Does this make me
Your step-dad
so sonny boy
have you done your chores
just get outta the house
cause i'm gonna score, with your mom
Hey dude can you get your stalker mom off my back?
I never knew i was THAT good in the sack
that weekend in vegas we got married without even thinking
you should tell your mom to lay off the heavy drinking
cause we never had a prenump
and now shes gonna have to see
im getting half of all her stuff
not to mention, joint custody!
Your mom
Wanted me bad
Does this make me
Your step-dad
so sonny boy
have you done your chores
just get outta the house
cause i'm gonna score, with your mom

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

“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.

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.
lol.....i knew you would appreciate it:)
