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”
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all
Boy I love you and that's all
My friends? think I'm crazy
'Cause I'm running around with you
But they don't know you like I do I do?.
You're so impossible so unpredictable
I know they don't have to tell me
But my heart made up my mind
It's so irrational, so irresponsible
It may not make sense
But it's making me feel so deep
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all
3:30 in the morning and you're asking why I'm still here?!!
My life would probably be safer if you disappear, don't disappear no no
It's like a burning flame that stronger in the rain
I ask myself why I do this over and over again?
But with your pain
I still can't walk away until every chance gone
I'll be holding on
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all
I don't even have a choice, I have no choice
This kind of situation has a life of their own
So why is my love enough to explain
Why am I acting this way?
Is just ?cause?.
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all
Boy I love you and that's all
My friends? think I'm crazy
'Cause I'm running around with you
But they don't know you like I do I do?.
You're so impossible so unpredictable
I know they don't have to tell me
But my heart made up my mind
It's so irrational, so irresponsible
It may not make sense
But it's making me feel so deep
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all
3:30 in the morning and you're asking why I'm still here?!!
My life would probably be safer if you disappear, don't disappear no no
It's like a burning flame that stronger in the rain
I ask myself why I do this over and over again?
But with your pain
I still can't walk away until every chance gone
I'll be holding on
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all
I don't even have a choice, I have no choice
This kind of situation has a life of their own
So why is my love enough to explain
Why am I acting this way?
Is just ?cause?.
My only reason
Love is my only reason and love can make you crazy things
And that's why my only explanation is coz I love you and that's all, boy I love you
And that's all

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
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.
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.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
so true this song. i hear it playing in my head everytime i see this guy. maybe i should just sing it to him. hah. anyway. you can definitely hear her talent in this song.
