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.
No no baby
How can I begin to tell you
What you do to me every time I hear ya
More willing to want to see ya
I know that there's no use in
Tryin' to explain the confusion
But still I'm not complainin'
'Bout my situation
Let's not talk about a possible ending
The very first time that I
was lookin' to be your fella
I found my inspiration
hidin' in your expression
So I put myself on forward
for your consideration
[Chorus]
Let's not talk about a possible ending
Let's not think about it every day
And I know I'm so in love with you
I'm finding it harder and harder to breathe
Every time I'm near a beautiful woman
And so we put the top down
To take you drivin' downtown
I guess we'll know just what to do
When you're lookin' to fool around
It's too late to stop me
I know we're gonna get down, get down, oh no
[Chorus]
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
Yes you are, yes you are
My beautiful woman
Anything that you want me to, I'll do
My beautiful
be is for beautiful as the sunshine
E tells me everything's feelin' alright
A goes to you and me swingin' it down
T is two, I want you
You've got me actin' like a fool
[Chorus: x2]
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
Yes you are, yes you are
My beautiful woman
You're so beautiful
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
How can I begin to tell you
What you do to me every time I hear ya
More willing to want to see ya
I know that there's no use in
Tryin' to explain the confusion
But still I'm not complainin'
'Bout my situation
Let's not talk about a possible ending
The very first time that I
was lookin' to be your fella
I found my inspiration
hidin' in your expression
So I put myself on forward
for your consideration
[Chorus]
Let's not talk about a possible ending
Let's not think about it every day
And I know I'm so in love with you
I'm finding it harder and harder to breathe
Every time I'm near a beautiful woman
And so we put the top down
To take you drivin' downtown
I guess we'll know just what to do
When you're lookin' to fool around
It's too late to stop me
I know we're gonna get down, get down, oh no
[Chorus]
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
Yes you are, yes you are
My beautiful woman
Anything that you want me to, I'll do
My beautiful
be is for beautiful as the sunshine
E tells me everything's feelin' alright
A goes to you and me swingin' it down
T is two, I want you
You've got me actin' like a fool
[Chorus: x2]
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman
Yes you are, yes you are
My beautiful woman
You're so beautiful
My beautiful woman
My beautiful woman

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
LOL...the load of crap many men use on women so they can use them or continue to use them. How many have ever had sex with a fat woman, or would even want to? How many would have sex with someone with gray roots, or even want to? How many would trade youth and beauty for warts, sag, flab and gray? Yeah, this is definitely a bullshit song many men use on women. If not this song, another like it. The reality of the situation ends the fantasy, now doesn't it. Just as the dream will end with the coming of the sun.
I love this song! It's so funky and different and I love it.
It's like the fastest song on the CD... ALL their songs are awesome! They'll all be hits.
It's an awesome song, so fast paced and it sorta makes you want to get up and get jiggy.
The meaning is simple.... It about a beautiful woman!! lol... great song...fantastic beat!!!
it's a wow song :)
I am not a "fella" BUT I loooove my friend Sara! I am from Kentucky. Come and GET LUCKY in Kentucky!
What the fuck am I SAYING???
Fun uptempo song with a great beat. Probably one of the best off the album!
