One, two, three, four
Mmm, oh
I think I could like you
Already do
Feelings can grow but
They can go away too
You're taking my hand
Looking into my eyes
Don't be in a rush to get me tonight
I feel something happening
Could this be a spark?
To satisfy me, baby
Got to satisfy my heart

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl
(Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?
Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?)

I think I could like you
But I keep holding back
'Cause I can't seem to tell
If you're fiction or fact
Show me you can laugh
Show me you can cry
Show me who you really are
Deep down inside
Do you feel something happening?
Could this be for real?
I don't know right now
But tonight we'll reveal

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl
(Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?
Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?)

Bring me some flowers
Conversation for hours
To see if we really connect
And maybe if we do, oh
I'll be giving all my love to you
Oh

Do you know how to touch a girl?
If you want me so much
First I have to know
Are you thoughtful and kind?
Do you care what's on my mind
Or am I just for show?
You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl
(Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?
Do you know how to touch, know how to touch a girl?)

You'll go far in this world
If you know how to touch a girl

    "You'll go far in this world if you know how to touch a girl." Her voice sounds amazing in this song. I'm not keen on certain lyrics, but the general meaning of the song makes a lot of sense. It's not about whether or not a girl lets you touch her, but whether they want to. It's what a guy needs to do in order for the girl to want to do this stuff. She'll love him physically, & more importantly emotionally, if he knows how to treat her. x

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental 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.
