I'd cross the desert to be where you are
All the things I'd do to be close to you
A million miles wouldn't seem that far
I'd go anywhere just to win your heart

But wherever this leads
There's something I need

I need love
The kind that makes you wanna live
The kind that makes you wanna breathe
The kind that makes you feel too much
And I need you
To help me find a better way
And I guess you never thought you'd hear me say
I need love
I need love

And when I see you I just lose my mind
You're the everything I thought I'd never find
Must be an angel watching over me
With a little luck we're gonna make you mine
'Cause I wannna believe (I want to believe)
In all we can be (all we can be)

I need love
The kind that makes you wanna live
The kind that makes you wanna breathe
The kind that makes you feel too much
And I need you
To help me find a better way
And I guess you never thought you'd hear me say

And oh, I will catch you when you fall

Be the greatest love of all
I promise to be
If you give me what I need, I need

(I need love)
(The kind that makes you live) I need love
(The kind that makes you wanna breathe) I need you
(The kind that makes you feel too much) The kind that makes you feel

(And I need you) The one that makes you wanna live
(The one that makes you wanna breathe
The one that makes you feel too much)
And I need you (to help me find a better way)
And I guess you never thought you'd hear me say
I need love
I need love
'Cause I need love, baby
I need love

I'd cross the desert
I'd cross the desert to be where you are

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
