[Common]
Yes, we have arrived
Joss Stone, Common
Uh huh
It's for the world, world, world, world
Uh

[Joss Stone]
You don't have to make your mind up
I just wanna take my time with you
(Yeah)
If that's alright
It's alright, it's alright
Oh, forgive me if I get to shy, but
Maybe you're the reason why
I'm feelin' butterflies
(I feel it too)
Somethin' 'bout the look in your eyes
Oh, it just makes me feel so right

[Chorus:]
Well, you're my boy
You're my joy
You're my dream
I'm for ya
I adore ya
You're everything that I need
I love how you love me
If I'm made for you
You're made for me
It's too good to be
So tell me what we're gonna do now

Funny how my world keeps spinnin'
Sometimes you can be so silly
You know just how to make me laugh
Yeah
Oh, you're skin is so lovely
When you touch me
I know that you got my back
(Sure do; yes, I do)
I feel so safe when you hold me
It's already like you know me

[Chorus]

Oh, right now
See, baby, I love how you make me smile
Don't leave
Please stay awhile
Let's make this happen
I don't care how

[Common]
Right now, let's stay in the present
Can't worry 'bout tomorrow 'cause today is a blessin'
The world in a state of aggression
I find calm in you
I see my mom in you
It's like a feelin' in a nigga's stomach
When you want it so bad
If you keep keepin' it fresh
It ain't gonna go bad
I been through the valley of love
Rolled the shores of Cali
Just to find peace of mind
Lookin' to the sky
Askin' for at least a sign
Beautiful, you came at such a decent time
When we combine
It's like good food and wine
Flavorful yet refined
You remind me of the divine
So easy
Love can be lost and then found, like Stevie
I just love havin' you around
You wearin' a gown
I'm wearin' a crown
Pound for pound
We the freshest couple in town

Well, you're my boy
You're my joy
You're my dream
I'm for ya
I adore ya
You're everything that I need
I love how you love me
If I'm made for you
You're made for me
It's too good to be
Tell me what we're gonna do
Tell me what we're gonna do now

    The song's meaning is so simple, so I'm not surprised that no one's commented on it. It's such a great song, though. The acoustic version on her MySpace speaks a lot more to me than the beat-driven one.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
