Living in lonely desperate times
You’re keeping me far enough and way behind
And never do I know

What you think and do you feel
Are your fires burning
You keeping your morals nice and tight
While keeping your mind all open wide
What’s in the future do you suppose?
I may have opened up your mind

You seemed to know just what you’re doing
But you signed and changed your tune
And I’m out loud and I’m not selling myself out and that’s the truth

Keepin’ Him low-key just because
Reason too cool to wear the thorn and cross
The direction not His course

What you think and do you feel
Are your fires burning
You keeping your morals nice and tight
While keeping your mind all open wide
What’s in the future do you suppose?
I may have opened up your mind

You seemed to know just what you’re doing
But you signed and changed your tune
And I’m out loud and I’m not selling myself out and that’s the truth

Somewhere Only We Know
Keane
Per the FAQ on Keane's website, Keane's drummer Richard Hughes, stated the following: "We've been asked whether "Somewhere Only We Know" is about a specific place, and Tim has been saying that, for him, or us as individuals, it might be about a geographical space, or a feeling; it can mean something individual to each person, and they can interpret it to a memory of theirs... It's perhaps more of a theme rather than a specific message... Feelings that may be universal, without necessarily being totally specific to us, or a place, or a time..." With the nostalgic sentiment and the overall tone of the song, I think Keane is attempting to express a Portuguese term known as 'saudade', which does not have a direct English translation but roughly means "that which we remember because it is gone."

This track is about is about questioning why the sky would choose to be blue if it had the choice to be anything else, “blue also meaning sad,” states frontman Aaron Pauley. “It's about comforting a loved one in a time of loss by telling them you feel blue, too.”

The Last Dance
Within Temptation
@[Kahiara:35260] Actually I think the husband passed away, "She sang for you last night She heard you were calling" Many people say they have felt, heard, or seen their loved ones after they have passed. "Don't be scared now Close your eyes She holds guard tonight Go on forward no remorse Life will take it's course" This is said to the late husband by a third part (never named), who encourages him to pass on. Because life will eventually continue. The phrase "holds guard" refers to the ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake_(ceremony) ) which is a Christian ceremony held after someone dies. Now it is usually held right after the funeral, but in most celtiic countries the wake is held before the funeral. "She danced with you last night so you will remember All you have shared, a lifetime." This sentence feels as if the only thing it wants to convey is their history together, namely, husband and wife. For the rest it just refers back to the first verse.
