I want to say I want to do better
I need to start a new life
First thing's to let go of the time that's passed us by
I'd like to be the one that you call for
When you're not sure what's right
Hope I'm not asking too much because I miss you

I watched you crawl, I made you suffer
I'm so sorry I let you down
I am coming home to you as fast as I can
This time I won't let you down no

How can I get back
It's been on my mind for far too long
I can never get it back
But if you would let me in I swear
I'll be a better man
I'm so sorry I wasn't there

I believe it's hard for you to picture
You and me and everything's nice
This time I'm going to make sure I'm always in your life
If it takes a little longer than we thought
For us to work this out
I hope at least you know I've always missed you

I watched you crawl, I made you suffer
I'm so sorry I let you down
I am coming home to you as fast as I can
This time I won't let you down no

How can I get back
It's been on my mind for far too long
I can never get it back
All the time I wasted
But if you would let me in I swear
I'll be a better man
I'm so sorry I wasn't there

I am coming home
I am coming home
This time I won't let you down I won't hurt you

How can I get back
It's been on my mind for far too long
I can never get it back
All the time I wasted it
But if you would let me in I swear
I'll be a better man
I'm so sorry I wasn't there

    Yeah. He's asking for a second chance to prove that he's changed and that he's sorry. He's sorry for everything he's done to the girl. He's going to try and do whatever it takes to make everything better and to be a person that the person he had been in the past. He's apologising for all the times she needed him but he wasn't there for her.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
