Thank you for tomorrow
When you gonna call me (call me)
Thank you for the weekend
When you gonna see me (see me)
Thank you for the memories
We haven't made yet
You've always been a part of me
Even before we met (we met)
Yeah

Thank you in advance for the love you give me
I've had a glance of the good life (good life)
You'll be there when nobody believes me
I've gone through it all in my mind

[Chorus]
I can see me looking at you
At the start of the day for all my life
I can see me dying to hold you
On the way when
I'm driving home at night

I've got these pictures in my head
These pictures in my head, yeah
I've got these pictures in my head
These pictures in my head

Thank you for tomorrow
When you gonna call me (call me)
Thank you for the weekend
When you gonna see me (see me)
Thank you in advance
For the time you'll notice
I'm all you've wanted all of your life
Thank you for every single moment
I've gone through it all in my mind

[Chorus]

I've got these pictures in my head
These pictures in my head, yeah
I've got these pictures in my head
These pictures in my head
Pictures in my head

Thank you for the best times
Thank you for the journey

[Chorus: x2]

I've got these pictures in my head
These pictures in my head, yeah
Pictures in my head, yeah

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.

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.

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
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.
