Who am I to say

Hope

Love of my life, my soulmate
You're my best friend
Part of me like breathing
Now half of me is left

Don't know anything at all
Who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me

Color me blue I'm lost in you
Don't know why I'm still waiting
Many moons have come and gone
Don't know why I'm still searching

Don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me

Hmmm hmmm mmm
Uhhh oohhh aahhh
Hooo aahhh ohh ohhh

Now you're a song I love to sing
Never thought it feels so free
Now I know what's meant to be
And that's okay with me

But who am I to say you love me
And who am I to say you need me
And who am I to say you love me

Mmmm hmmm

I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you love me
I don't know anything at all
And who am I to say you need me
I don't know anything at all

I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything at all
I don't know anything at all

    To me this song is about not being able to move one from someone. Its about wanting to move on, but not being able to. "Color me blue I'm lost in you Don't know why I'm still waiting Many moons have come and gone Don't know why I'm still searching" You dont know why you're still waiting, but you cant move on.

    This song is from a movie called Cover about a woman who discovers that her husband is on the Down Low. This movie is so shocking that when it ended I sat there watching the credits unable to move because I could not beleive what I had just seen. And to realize that this is the story of women today brought me tears. As I listened to this song I fell in love with the meaning of it and was able to apply it to a relationship that I just ended.

    What she's saying is that this man was the love of her life the person she thuoght was her soul mate. But later finds out that he's not. And even though she may have known she was still waiting for him hoping that things woudl work out. The bottom line is that they didn't and once she was willign to accept that they were not meant to be she was able to be okay with it. The acceptance of that has freed her heart even though she still may not understand acceptance means freedom.

    this song is insanely beautifull. and i think your on the right track kay20, i think she loves this guy but thought that she meant more to him than she actually did and is realizing that love makes people blind but part of her still cant let him go.

    'Colour me blue, I'm lost in you'

    I love this song, Hope has such a gorgeous voice. I think concreteskies is probably right, now that I've read it again.

    i think she is saying goodbye to someone who just died. She is saying that they never got round to acutally saying 'i love you,' and she thought that he loved her, but now that he's gone she won't ever know. But i think she is saying that its got to a point that she is finally saying goodbye, knowing that this was destiny, something to make her stronger, having such strong love and then being able to say goodbye to it.

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.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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/

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
