Every moment of your life
Is a chance to get it right
Any moment you've been living in
You could turn it on like a light
All the weight of the years
Has got me burstin' into tears
Standin' here with nothin'
I stand alone inside my fears

Like an atom reveals a deeper state
Well I swear for me tonight
It's not too late

To tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I'll mean it
Even when I'm talking to myself
I said maybe, it's you and only you and no one else

How I miss Moscow
Those people really know
How to have a good time
In a mixed up state of mind
And Monotov's Private Opera is closed
So I guess I'll go home now
Cause there's no where's else to go

And I will tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I will mean it
Even when I'm talking to myself
I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else
You and no one else

Now I'm stuck inside a poem
And then I'm walkin by myself
In the dark, all alone
And these actors and dramatists
They won't send me home

Well, maybe I'm like my father
Strung out on something or another
Held to a standard
We were always sinking under
And maybe I'm like my mother
She shattered cause no one loved her
Maybe I, Maybe I am like no other

And some moments are more real than the books I've read
And a good woman, maybe she meant what she said
Cause to feel you now ya know, it goes straight to my head

So I'll tell you baby
It's you and only you and no one else
And I will mean it, even when I'm talkin' to myself
I said baby, it's you and only you and no one else
Talkin' to myself
Talkin' to myself

And everything changed in a day
And I know another one on the way
And I'll tell you
Everything changed in a day
And I know another one is on the way

Album art
Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Album art
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.
Album art
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.
Album art
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
