So much for love I guess
I've been wronged but it's alright
'Cause I'm moving on
I've got my car all packed

With cassette tapes and sweaters
And loose change and cheap cigarettes
I'm gonna drive through the hills
Put my hand out the window

And sing until I run out of words
I'm gonna stop at every truck stop
And make small talk with the waiters and truck driving men
I'm gonna fall asleep in the back seat
With no one around but me and my friends

It's gonna be so great
It's gonna be just like my wedding day

Yeah, I've had enough of love
It feels good to give up so good to be good to myself
And I'm gonna get on the highway with no destination
But plenty of vision in mind

I'm gonna drive to the ocean
Go skinny dippin' blow kisses to Venus and mars
I'm gonna stop at every bar
And flirt with the cowboys in front of their girlfriends

It's gonna be so great
It's gonna be just like my wedding day

So much for love I guess
I've been wronged but it's alright
'Cause I'm moving on
I'm gonna drive over hills over mountains

And canyons and boys that keep bringing me down
I'm gonna drive under skyline and sunshine
Drink good wine at vineyards
And get asked to dance

I'm gonna be carefree and let nothing pass me by
Never ever again

It's gonna be so great
It's gonna be so great
It's gonna be just like my wedding day

    this song is amazing. i think its like...relationship is done...hearts have been broken but theres no point to dwell on something unchangable..and might as well still go out and enjoy life while you can...even ifyou have to be alone doing it!

    so so so good. about freedom and enjoying being single despite a broken heart... i think saying it's gonna be like her wedding day is ironic cos it's the opposite.

    I love this song to death. It makes me want to pack my stuff and take a roadtrip to nowhere in particular. I think that it's about a girl who has had her heart broken, but is moving on by getting away from everything to live.

    I love this song. I agree ILYhahajk. It makes me want to get up and leave too. She's had her heart broken but she isn't going to allow it to change her, she is still going to live and take chances and have fun. I love how she compares it to her wedding day. For most, that is the best day of their life, but to her, everyday will be like her wedding day.

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
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”

Magical
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.

Blue
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.
