This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
You know I need your love
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line
I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put somethin' better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
If I should doubt myself
If I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line
You've got that hold over me
Long as I've got your love
You know that I'll never leave
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line
I know how much I lean on you
Only you can see
The changes that I've been through
Have left a mark on me
You've been as constant as a Northern Star
The brightest light that shines
It's been you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
'Cause you believed in me through my darkest night
Put somethin' better inside of me
You brought me into the light
Threw away all those crazy dreams
I put them all behind
And it was you, woman
Right down the line
I just want to say this is my way
Of tellin' you everything
I could never say before
Yeah, this is my way of tellin' you
That every day I'm lovin' you so much more
If I should doubt myself
If I'm losing ground
I won't turn to someone else
They'd only let me down
When I wanted you to share my life
I had no doubt in my mind
And it's been you, woman
Right down the line

Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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”
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
He is acknowledging how important some one is and has been in his life as far as success goes and be "a rock" and tethering him and keeping him grounded in a good way...Lovely love song. :)
Exactly. He is a person others see as successful and confident. Here he gives us a window into his nagging self doubts and lack of direction/purpose in life. As you say, she's his rock of Gibraltar.<br /> I particularly like the 'northern star' imagery - both the obvious meaning as something unfading but also as a beacon to guide his life by. The 'northern star' was used by sailors in antiquity to navigate by.<br /> Another Beautiful song by Gerry!
beautiful.
This is the most romantic song I've ever heard, bar none.
My favorite line is "When I wanted you to share my life, I had no doubt in my mind"
It's also been a dream of mine to have someone sing these words to me. Maybe my husband will someday.
Wow, I can't believe this song has so few comments. This song is awesome! It reminds me of my parents. My mom has it on a CD and she said she wants my dad to dedicate this song to her. They've been together since they were teenagers. They got married and had my sister and I when they were sooo young. But they stayed together and they have the most amazing relationship ever. They are best friends to this day. 20 years later and you can see how much they still love each other and have fun together. And they never fight. It's pretty inspirational. I am so thankful I've had them as an example, I will never settle now. Anyway this song makes me think of them!
beautifully written. so simple yet so meaningful. His voice is so soothing as well. I love that he's not forcing the song, but just laying it down, right down the line haha. I just had a thought, I think I'll dedicate this song to my hot wife. For sure I'll earn some brownies for dat shit ;)
I've always loved this song, but I'm a bigger music nerd than my wife. However, the comments of the women on this board have inspired me to record a cover version as a gift to her. I hope she likes it as much as these commenters would. :)
Gerry has such a beautiful way with his music and lyrics. I'd give anything to hear somebody say these words to me. This is such a romantic song yet it's very believable and real. It's not just someone feeding you a bunch of bullshit and sap.
Great song! Music, lyrics, what a superb affair. Classic. This is a song you play taking a late night drive with your Love.
My favorite song
I've listened to this many times and I'm confused about one of the words in the line "When I wanted you to share/shape my life". Although "share" would be more common, it sounds more like "shape" and I've also seen this interpretation on some lyrics sites. Not that opinions are bad, but where can I get a definitive answer?
He is most definitely singing 'share' both in the opening and closing verses. Even if he did sing shape, it would still fit with the tender but kinda clingy theme of he song as per 'vulnaviaon' and my comments above.
