| John Mellencamp – Check It Out Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I think that this song focuses on the American dream and its disappointments. Since we are children, we are told that we are going to grow up, get married, have kids, have a job, buy a house, etc. This is the American dream. Then when we get there, we're not happy, and we're confused and trapped by a mortgage, marriage, and kids. Goin' to work on Monday Got yourself a family All utility bills have been paid You can't tell your best buddy that you love him So check it out Where does our time go Got a brand new house in escrow Sleepin' with your back to your loved one This is all that we've learned about happiness "I hope they have a better understanding..." embodies hope for the next generation to really find out what makes them happy, rather than following the formula of the "American dream." That's always what stood out to me anyway. :) |

| Van Morrison – Have I Told You Lately Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
It's not a love song to a woman, he's expressing his love for God. Have I told you lately that I love you Have I told you there's no one above you Fill my heart with gladness Take away my sadness Ease my troubles, that's what you do Oh the morning sun in all its glory Greets the day with hope and comfort too And you fill my life with laughter You can make it better Ease my troubles that's what you do |

| Mason Jennings – Ballad For My One True Love Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
The line "God bless the babies that sleep in you," could very well be literal. Babies in the womb have sleep and wake cycles just like we do. Also, Mason is married and has two sons, so it's very possible he's singing to his pregnant wife. The figurative makes sense as well, though, referring to his children yet to be conceived. I guess the questions are: when did he write the song, and how old are his kids? ;) |
