Oh yeah, I got time
Oh yeah, I guess I'm doing fine
Till I met you in the dark
I was chasing little sparks
You were slinked and dressed in pink
Here with someone, you wouldn't think
Is this the kill, is this the thrill

I'll wait until you, you say
This could be love
This could be love

Oh yeah, I got hope
Oh yeah, it comes and goes
Till I met you things were easy
Till I felt you things were sleazy
Doesn't matter once I told
You were someone I could hold
Is this the kill, is this the thrill

I'll wait until you say
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love

Oh yeah, I want you
Oh yeah more than you want me to
Till I met you in the dark
I was chasing little sparks
When you think you're going to sink
Here comes someone you wouldn't think
Is this the kill, is this the thrill

I'll wait until you say
This could be love, you say
This could be love, yeah
Love
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love
Love
This could be love
This could be love
This could be love, again
Love

    Besides the sexy beat and dreamy melody, this song seems to represent the singers dream of what could be. Something surprisingly out of the blue, out of the ordinary, Maybe a little naughty and intoxicating. It could be love...💞

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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.
