Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me

Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me
Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me

Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me
Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me

Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me
Oh woman you make me feel
Like I'm on fire
Oh woman you make it real
It's the only way for me

    I think you guys are taking the lyrics too seriously, I think its some guy deeply in love with this woman, and I think the fire comes into place as an intense burning passion

    this woman he speaks of.. she lights him on fire so he can feel real and he likes it a lot. so he's a pryo addict and wants to thank this woman for letting him continue on with life.. on fire. which then he will die because fire does that to you. o_O

    also.. since she's setting him on fire and he likes it and dies from fire, it's a song about assisted suicide. it's a great song and I likes it a lot but it gets depressing after you look into it.

    Uh.. I'm not sure if that was a joke or not, but yeah, very interesting take on the song if you weren't kidding.

    Anyway, just struck me as a song (a great song!) talking about a girl this guy has a thing for and how she makes him feel alive and makes things exciting for him.

    Maybe he got some sort of STD from this "woman", hence the feeling of fire. He should go to the doctor THEN sing a song about it.

    i really don't think it's about std's... haha. he just really loves a woman and the feeling she gives him is like no other. "it's the only way for me"

    like... that's the only feeling i need and she's the one who does it to him.

    i don't think it's depressing at all.

    i could listen to it on repeat for hours! <3

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

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.

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.
