Where do I begin?
There's so much I want to say to make it easier,
Tomorrow is on it's way,
Do you believe I want to take your painful memories?

I know you want to run away,
And I know that you can't see tomorrow.

Caroline,
Let me wipe away your tears, and give you life,
Make you feel beautiful again.
Caroline,
Don't throw it all away,
I'm here tonight to take away your pain.

Yesterday is gone,
And everything that made you cry is fallen to the ground.
I'm here to bring you hope,
I will always take you back, you haven't let me down.

I know you want to run away,
And I know that you can't see tomorrow.

Caroline,
Let me wipe away your tears, and give you life,
Make you feel beautiful again.
Caroline,
Don't throw it all away,
I'm here tonight to take away your pain.

And when you're feeling all alone, and you can't go on
Remember I am here
And when you think you've gone too far, I'll meet you where you are
My arms are open wide

Caroline,
Let me wipe away your tears, and give you life,
Make you feel beautiful again.
Caroline,
Don't throw it all away,
I'm here tonight to take away your pain.

Caroline,
Let me wipe away your tears, and give you life,
Make you feel beautiful again.
Caroline,
Don't throw it all away,
I'm here tonight to take away your pain.

Caroline

    This song is actually about the lead singers mother-in-law, she was married for something like 42 years and just got a divorce. Her name is Caroline. He wrote this song to her to try and help her through the whole divorce.

    yeah, MrSuperDusty is 100% right, i saw them live and he explained this song before he played it, and it's supposed to be a song from God to his mother in law.

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.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
