Owl City – Strawberry Avalanche Lyrics 14 years ago
The explanations here are all just so self-satisfying, at most, amusing. They're mostly subjective to whoever posted them, nothing more. Even the self-righteous ones who think they have the same meaning as intended. It's basic psych really. If the first comment on the song is true, then that's basically the whole meaning of the song.

Regina Spektor – Samson Lyrics 16 years ago
I think that because of:

"and the history books forgot about us
and the bible didn't mention us"

The "us" that wasn't mentioned was their love because it was
the cutting of the hair that's usually mentioned

"You are my sweetest downfall
I loved you first" and

It implied that not just of the sadness was in Samson's losing hair(strength),
but of her fear of losing him. My opinion is that because (in the song's version, at least) that she loved him before anyone else did, maybe she cut his hair so that she could keep loving him, despite his strength, even if no one else did without it. And because she did that to keep him, everyone was against her, and that became her downfall.

I think that seems to make not as much sense. If it meant that way, ten the lyrics should be "I loved you AT first". Anyway you say it "I loved you first" means she loved him either: 1. before anyone else did or 2. before he loved her

Levi Kreis – With You Lyrics 16 years ago
I used to be the life of the party
The Man of the hour
The one in control
Never a question
No hesitation
Get who I want
And then I'd move on
But you've stolen my thunder
Taken me under
With something so real

With you I can't speak
I can't move
I can hardly breathe
I'm a fumbling boy
Whose never felt something like this
oh, And it's just how it is with you

I'm paralyzed
By the light of an angel
You may be all I've been dreaming of
I know the likes/lines of infatuation
And I'll be surprised if this isn't love
Cuz I just want to break through
Reach out and feel you
Fall into me yeah

With you I can't speak
I can't move
I can hardly breathe
I'm a rebelling boy
Who's never felt something like this
And it's just how it is with you

Oh I want to reach out and touch you
Feel you consume me
Fall into me

With you I can't speak
I can't move
I can hardly breathe
I'm a fumbling boy
Who's never felt something like this
And it's just how it is..
With you I can't speak
I can't move
I can hardly breathe
I'm a fumbling boy
Who's never felt something like this
And it's just how it is
And it's just how it is with you

This song is so romantic. Even the "acoustic-like" version on the other album.

"...how it is with you

I'm paralyzed
By the light of an angel
You may be ..."
