Waves break over the shore, her heart breaks over him
Fickle love, faded fantasies, sweet dreams turning sour within
She touching 44 and he not so sweet 16
And though she loved him more it seemed this love had never, ever been

Oh, you know your still beautiful
(x3)

Empty bottles on the shelf as time came to pass
(on the shelf your lonely heart)
She thought she'd find his angel face in the bottom of a whiskey glass
(thinking of him, fall apart)
Could've been his mother but she hoped she'd be his lover just for a little while
Freshened up he make-up, sighed, and tried to welcome middle age with a friendly smile

She leans to tattoo him with one long last kiss
Gee I never knew love could be like this
The smell of cheap Gin laced with midnight cologne
The man on the T.V. calls Kathy, Kathy come home
Yeah, Kathy come home

Waves break over the shore her heart broke over him
(the waves take your breaking heart)
She threw her memories to the sea and now it's just as if he'd never, ever been
(tides bring a brand new start)
Never, ever been
Letters and photographs, the tide has taken them far away, far away
She still looking beautiful and who needs him anyway? Anyway.

Oh, you know your still beautiful

Let the waves take your breaking heart
(x3)
Your breaking heart
Your breaking heart

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Page
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.
