Been searching for some answers
To the questions I should know
There's an angel up above me
And another down below

They offer me the world
But I don't exactly know
If these visions here they come to me
To stay or finally go

And I'm caught between two angels and a dream
One is pulling at my heart while the other rips the scenes
Caught between two angels and a dream
And I don't know where to go

That's a vision of a kingdom
And its twice is black as night
They're no brighter than the sun
With growing rays of light

And somewhere in between
Is the place that I ignore
My decision last and win
And to where I want to go

And I'm caught between two angels and a dream
One is pulling at my heart while the other rips the scenes
Caught between two angels and a dream
And I don't know where to go

I've got to find
Find the answers
I've got to find
My equilibrium
I've got to dream
Within the balance
I've got to keep
My equilibrium

Between the black and white
Between what's wrong and what's right
It's where I feel myself fall upon
Between you and me
Between what's cash and what's free
And I found where I belong

And I'm caught between two angels and a dream
One is pulling at my heart while the other rips the scenes
These eyes have shown no future to be seen
Then to throw it all away for something in between

    Its "One is pulling at my heart while the other rips the seams" not "one is pulling at my heart while the other rips the scenes "

    anyway, its a pretty easy to read song, its about choosing right from wrong, black from white. Find your equilibrium

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”

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
