Kiss me baby I am snow white sleeping in a coffin
Waiting for you - waiting for magic
Baby I am snow white sleeping in a coffin
Waiting for you - waiting for magic

A man of the world but lost in a dream
You look at something from a different angle
But I exist I'm waiting for you
In a coffin made of glass

Kiss me baby I'm attractive
Baby get to know me
Show who you are
Give me that magic
Baby I'm eternal
Lying in a coffin
Waiting for you

In your dream a girl is dancing close to you (that girl is me)
Once a witch made her sleep but a prince will wake her up that's you

Kiss me baby
In the tale is the place to find her
Reach out to get to know her
It means so much to me
The meaning of the book

Oh, kiss me baby wake me up
Oh, kiss me baby wake me up
Join the story of the fairytale
Believe the dream you will not fail
Oh, kiss me baby wake me up

Kiss me baby
Waiting for magic it's what I do
Waiting for magic for me and you
Oh, kiss me baby wake me up

Caught in a dream how lucky you are
You can see me I'm the girl behind you
So open your eyes and turn around
And watch me dancing join the fairy tales

Kiss me baby
You cannot reach her on the planet
That scientist want to call earth
But if you use your imagination
You will see her
You will find her in your dreams

I see no shadows in my dreams
It is something so romantic
I can tell it's for real you'll see

    This song is the best ever! At first it may seem a bit weird, but if you look deeper you will find it has a lot of meaning. It's about loving somebody who doesn't realise who you really are and hoping they will look deeper and find you. Have a listen and tell us what you feel! ACE OF BASE 4EVER!

Techno Ted
Audioslave
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.

Fast Car
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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
