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.
Know I love you baby
Know I love you baby
You know I love you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
I tell you what I would do
I would rather be a big somebody
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
Though it don't sound true
If you'd throw me in the ocean
I'd swim to the shore
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright
Know I love you baby
Know I love you baby
You know I love you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
I tell you what I would do
I would rather be a big somebody
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright
Four o'clock in the mornin'
You come walkin' home
I ain't got no consolation
But to ring you on the phone
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name
Know I love you baby
You know I love you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
I tell you what I would do
I would rather be a big somebody
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
Though it don't sound true
If you'd throw me in the ocean
I'd swim to the shore
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright
Know I love you baby
Know I love you baby
You know I love you baby
You don't even know my name
Let me tell you baby
I tell you what I would do
I would rather be a big somebody
And come home to you
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name, alright
Four o'clock in the mornin'
You come walkin' home
I ain't got no consolation
But to ring you on the phone
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
Ain't that lovin' you baby
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name
You don't even know my name

“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.
