You caught my fall making out on alcohol
An innocent mistake
Falling in love on accident, I didn't mean to

Constant danger, constant stranger
It started out so sweet
And now we're both feeling incomplete
I don't know how much I can take
We're on, we're off

We're knocked down and getting up
We try to fight it, the agony and ecstasy
And it's painful but it's worth it
'Cause you're so foxy and I think you're kinda good for me
You're so foxy

Mental Earthquake, conversation mistakes
My army of words
I can't believe you're crawling back for more out of desire

Destiny or chemicals, emotions are susceptible
And you I can't resist
I can't seem to walk away from this
So show me how much you can take, are you in or out?

You're knocked down and getting up
You kinda like it, the agony and ecstasy
And it's painful, I'm sorry
But you're so foxy, I can't let you get away from me
'Cause you're so foxy

You're so foxy to me, I'm so lucky
'Cause you're so foxy

So get out of my way, I'm feeling so in love today
It can't be understood
And when we're feeling good it's really good
The kind of good that feels like fate
We're back and forth

We're knocked down and getting up
We try to fight it, the agony and ecstasy
And it's painful but it's your fault
'Cause you're so foxy and you got yourself all over me
You're so foxy

And I can't take it, it's hard to take it
I can't take it
It's painful but it's worth it
'Cause you're so foxy
I think you must be good for me

    Oh my God! I adore this song! Can't believe no comments :P Anyways this song pretty much explains itself, you've fallen in love but you don't want to, you've tried so hard to rid yourself of the virus called love, but you can't. Great song!

    Best song of all time, definitely No Doubt's best. The hyped up music definitely matches up with Gwen's incredible lust for who she's falling in love it. She's definitely adoring this person, and we can all relate to this song whenever we get a crush on someone. This song doesn't forget to mention the crazy feelings, and how she can't resist. I can't explain how great it is.

    This song reminds me of how my bf and I met..."you caught my fall making out on alcohol.."

    This song is obviously about not meaning to fall in love...and as much as you tried to fight it, love is just inevitable in this case, or fate as she says it, "and when we're feeling good its really good, the kind of good that feels like fate"..

    Sometimes you just can't help what the heart wants.

    This song describes exactly the relationship that I'm in right now. From the beginning where we fell in love on accident and all the problems she describes here. Me and my boyfriend have our problems too and we love each other but the question is how much can we take?

    we're knocked down and getting up we try to fight it, the agony and ecstasy and it's painful but it's worth it 'cause you're so foxy and i think you're kinda good for me

The Night We Met
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"

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/

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“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.
