I close my eyes
And even when I'm sleeping
I'm alright
'Cause you are in my life

Once upon a time
I only imagined this
And now you're mine

Wished for you so hard
Pray that you'd find me
Maybe you're here today
Here to remind me

If you believe that dreams come true
There's one that's waiting here for you
'Cause I believed when I saw you

That when you want something enough
Then it can't escape your love
There is nothin' in the world that cannot be
If you believe

Everybody said that
That I was a fool to think
That we'd connect
But I couldn't get my heart out of my head

And they just didn't see
No, they just couldn't know
The feeling that you get
The places that you go

If you believe that dreams come true
There's one that's waiting there for you
'Cause I believed when I saw you

That when you want something enough
Then it can't escape your love
There is nothin' in the world that cannot be
If you believe

Never wished for material things
Never needed wind in my wings
I never wished for anything but you, you, you

I can't explain it
Someone just told me
Go where your heart is
You'll never be lonely

If you believe that dreams come true
There's one that's waiting there for you
'Cause I believed when I saw you

That when you want someone enough
Then they can't escape your love
There is nothin' in the world that cannot be
If you believe, believe believe believe

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Album art
Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
