Knowing love the way I do
I can say for certain that it's true
There's a chance for me and you
I surely feel like the time is near
The picture in my mind is very clear
I think love has brought us here

I remember not too long ago
I was just a lonely person with a lonely heart
And I was hopin' there could one day be
Be a chance for me to

Get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love takes a long time
Wait for love and you're gonna get the chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love, oh my

When you take the chance on love you see
It's not a waste of time if you truly believe
The impossible can be
So hold on tight if you think you're right
'Cause nothing hurts as bad as when you see
You gave up too easily

I remember spending all my time
On a dream that kept me wishing that you could be mine
And I was hopin' there could one day be
Be a chance for me to

Get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love takes a long time
Wait for love and you're gonna get the chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love, oh my

I never stopped believing there could one day
Be a chance for me to

Get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love takes a long time
Wait for love and you're gonna get your chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love that you've been missin'
Sometimes love takes a long time
Wait for love and you're gonna get your chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
But wait for love and you're gonna get your chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
But wait for love and you're gonna get your chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
But wait for love and you're gonna get your chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
But wait for love and you're gonna get the chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love that I'd been missin'
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
Wait for love and you're gonna get the chance to love
Wait for love, wait for love

And you get the love
Sometimes love, it takes a long time
Wait for love

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
