In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
It was 3 AM
When you woke me up
And we jumped in the car and drove as far as we could go
Just to get away
We talked about our lives
Until the sun came out
And now I'm thinking about
How I wish I could go back
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Ever since you walked away
It left my life in disarray
All I want is one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you
When the car broke down
We just kept walking along
'Til we hit this town
There was nothing there at all
But that was all OK
We spent all our money
On stupid things
But if I look back now
I'd probably give it all away
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Ever since you walked away
It left my life in disarray
All I want is one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you
Now I'm sitting here
Like we used to do
I think about my life
And now there's nothing I won't do
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Every time I hear your name
Every time I feel the same
It's like it all falls into place
Everything, everything feels right
You walked away
Just one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you
When you woke me up
And we jumped in the car and drove as far as we could go
Just to get away
We talked about our lives
Until the sun came out
And now I'm thinking about
How I wish I could go back
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Ever since you walked away
It left my life in disarray
All I want is one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you
When the car broke down
We just kept walking along
'Til we hit this town
There was nothing there at all
But that was all OK
We spent all our money
On stupid things
But if I look back now
I'd probably give it all away
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Ever since you walked away
It left my life in disarray
All I want is one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you
Now I'm sitting here
Like we used to do
I think about my life
And now there's nothing I won't do
Just for one more day
One more day with you
Every time I see your face
Every time you look my way
It's like it all falls into place
Everything feels right
Every time I hear your name
Every time I feel the same
It's like it all falls into place
Everything, everything feels right
You walked away
Just one more day
It's all I need
Is one more day with you

@[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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
this song is about pierres ex girlfriend wave b/c over the summer the broke up and he loved her b/c he was with her for 2 1/2 years. but this song could really hold meaning to anyone who thinks about " the one that got away" its kind of what im like when i think about my ex bryan he was my everything and the way the person feels in the chorus is how i feel when i see bry
