Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath, truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky
I'll make a wish, send it to heaven, then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the pleasure and the certainty
That we're surrounded by the comfort and protection of
The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Oh, can you see it, baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come
Ooh-ooh, yeah-yeah
I'll be your dream, I'll be your wish, I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope, I'll be your love, be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath, truly, madly, deeply do
Mmm-mmm
I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
Well, I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
Ooh-ooh
Ooh, yeah-yeah
Oh, oh
La-la-la-la-do-yeah-oh-yeah

I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cause I'm counting on
A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah
Well, I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna bathe with you in the sea
I wanna lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me
And when the stars are shining brightly in the velvet sky

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

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.
Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
this song brings tear to my eye everytime
It's beautiful. I think we all intentionally go into a relationship thinking these things,but then reality catches up.
Especially beautiful is the original lines: "I want to stand with you on a mountain so I can push you off" and "I want to bathe with you in the sea so I can drown you." Not sure why the band omitted the endings. Rather sad, don't ya think.
ARE, not 'is." Ugh.
Yes. It is. As I'd surely love to see certain individuals plummet off a mountain top,or drown-better yet a massive shark bite them in half...
all time favorite song since the day i heard it and always will be :)
this was my gf's first slow dance ever and i was lucky enough to share it with her and truly madly deeply mean every word :]
awe how sweet
best three lines ever conceived for a love song: i'll be your dream i'll be your wish i'll be your fantasy i'll be your hope i'll be your love be everything that you need i love you more with every breath truly madly deeply do <3
i agree
Greatest love song of all time.... Tears roll down my face each time i listen to it...
Oh god i am crying again...
kick arse song
This song means so much to me, because of what it's talking about, and it reminds me of past relationships, but only one really sticks out...
However the line that I love is 'I will be strong, I will be faithful 'cuz I'm counting on a new beginning, A reason for living, A deeper meaning'
To me this is about how he has done things in the past that he isn't proud of, but now he wants to start over, wants to make everything with this one person absoloutely perfect, because they make everything right, they make him want to really try... and that's why he wants to do this stuff for them...
Just a thought...
I love this song soooooo much. It's just so sweet and lovely. This is another of my all time fave songs ever, I don't think it will ever get old or boring. I just completely melt everytime I hear it!
wow, i cant believe no one has commented on this song. Its such a sweet, romantic song!
