Well, my heart was breaking 'til you started making me
Feel like a natural man
My mind was mess until you brought happiness
Well, that's not hard to understand
When I'm through working, just fussing and cussing
I'll be there just as quick as I can

Here comes the night
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, love me (oh-oh)
Ooh (here come, here come)
(Here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
(Ooh)

I know livin' is takin' and givin'
Baby, I'm givin' you my best
One of these days, you know, I'm gonna go crazy
In the middle of your caress
When the day goes down, honey, I'll be around
Why don't you wear your pretty red dress?

Here comes the night
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, love me (oh-oh)
Ooh (here come, here come)
(Here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
(Ooh)

Every morning, our love is reborn
And it lives with me all day long
When things start a-changin', takes a little rearrangin'
But our love grows on and on
Stars that shine above are makin' you mine to love
It's never ever felt so strong

Here comes the night
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, squeeze me (oh-oh)
Don't ever leave me (here come, here come)
Tell me I'm doing alright (here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)
Hold me, love me (oh-oh)
Ooh (here come, here come)
(Here now, here comes the night)
(Oh, here comes the night)

    Ah, Beach Boys: Disco Kings. Or not. The Beach Boys should leave this stuff to to the Bee Gees and get back to what they do best, singing about summer in beautiful, complex vocal harmonies. Oh yeah, and the song is almost 11 minutes long (I don't think I've made it through yet).

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”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Magical
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.
