In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
One word, that's all you said
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head
Your smile just captured me
And you were in my future, far as I could see
And I don't know how it happened, but it happened still
You ask me if I love you, if I always will
Well, you had me from "Hello"
And I felt love start to grow
The moment that I looked into your eyes, you won me
It was over from the start
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"
Inside I built a wall so high around my heart
I thought I'd never fall
One touch, you brought it down
The bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground
And I swore to me I wasn't gon' to love again
The last time was the last time I'd let someone in
But you had me from "Hello"
And I felt love start to grow
The moment that I looked into your eyes, you won me
It was over from the start
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"
That's all you said
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head
You had me from "Hello"
You had me from "Hello"
Girl, I've loved you from "Hello"
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head
Your smile just captured me
And you were in my future, far as I could see
And I don't know how it happened, but it happened still
You ask me if I love you, if I always will
Well, you had me from "Hello"
And I felt love start to grow
The moment that I looked into your eyes, you won me
It was over from the start
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"
Inside I built a wall so high around my heart
I thought I'd never fall
One touch, you brought it down
The bricks of my defenses scattered on the ground
And I swore to me I wasn't gon' to love again
The last time was the last time I'd let someone in
But you had me from "Hello"
And I felt love start to grow
The moment that I looked into your eyes, you won me
It was over from the start
You completely stole my heart, and now you won't let go
I never even had a chance you know?
You had me from "Hello"
That's all you said
Something in your voice caused me to turn my head
You had me from "Hello"
You had me from "Hello"
Girl, I've loved you from "Hello"

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.
Holiday

@[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.

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.

This reminds me of the first time I heard my boyfriends voice. We meet over the internet and when I heard his voice for the first time I thought WOW. Then when I finally meet him in person, this song popped into my head. He definately had me from Hello.
I feel like when I listen to this song it like...sinks in me I tingle inside. It's so full of truth and love. I mean you just know it when you meet that one for you.
My bf wrote me a note saying he cried while listining to this song and looking at a picture of me...I will never forget how much I felt I loved him when I Read that note. He is the best thing to happen to me and This song Really made an empact just by him listinging to it and looking at a picture of me.
