Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
I want to have you
'Cause you're all I've got
Don't want to lose you
'Cause it means a lot
All the joy this world can bring
Doesn't give me anything
When you're not here
Idiot me
Stupid fool
How could you be
So uncool?
To fall in love with someone who
Doesn't really care for you
It's so obscure
But I feel
Wonderful
Yes I feel
Wonderful
Got it makes me be so blue
Every time I think about you
All of the heat of my desire
Smokin' like some crazy fire
Come on here
Look at me
Where I stand
Can't you see my heart burnin'
In my hands?
Do you want me?
Do you not?
Does it feel cold baby?
Does it feel hot?
I want to hold you
And be so held back
Don't want to need you
But it's where I'm at
Thinkin' bout you every day
How come I was made that way?
It's so surreal
But I feel, wonderful
Yes I feel, wonderful
'Cause you're all I've got
Don't want to lose you
'Cause it means a lot
All the joy this world can bring
Doesn't give me anything
When you're not here
Idiot me
Stupid fool
How could you be
So uncool?
To fall in love with someone who
Doesn't really care for you
It's so obscure
But I feel
Wonderful
Yes I feel
Wonderful
Got it makes me be so blue
Every time I think about you
All of the heat of my desire
Smokin' like some crazy fire
Come on here
Look at me
Where I stand
Can't you see my heart burnin'
In my hands?
Do you want me?
Do you not?
Does it feel cold baby?
Does it feel hot?
I want to hold you
And be so held back
Don't want to need you
But it's where I'm at
Thinkin' bout you every day
How come I was made that way?
It's so surreal
But I feel, wonderful
Yes I feel, wonderful

Like a lot of the other comments are saying, I think this mainly about voyeurism. If the song was about his girlfriend, then why would he use the word spy. If you are a spy it means you shouldn't be caught, that is kind of the whole point, and if you are a voyeur, the whole point of the pleasure you get from it, is the fact that the other people don't know you are watching them. See a bit of a connection there?
Techno Ted

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.
The Night We Met
Lord Huron
Lord Huron
This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Holiday

@[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 believe this album Bare was written when she divorced her husband if I remember correctly, and you can sort of see that in this song. She is trying to tell him how much she loves him and needs him and how nothing is the same without him and she is asking him in the second verse if he wants her just as bad and if the feelings are still there between them... This is my favorite song off Bare.
Corrections:
"God, it makes me feel so blue Everytime I think about you"
I love this song!
My all time favourite Annie Lennox track. She is a true artist!
**"God, it makes me feel so good Everytimg I think about you."
Or is it blue?

^whoops I meant in the chorus not the 2nd verse :)
just wow
The beauty of this song is that the love is not returned - which can be a miserable experience - and yet it doesn't stop the euphoria of being in love, of being around that person. You can try to deny it, you can wish it away, but Annie Lennox submits to it completely, even relishes it. Many songs highlight the heartache of unrequited love, while this one acknowledges that - despite all the pain and inconvenience - it still feels wonderful.
