We can call Mrs. Johnson
To keep the kids a day or two
Take the early flight to Florida
Just the way we used to do
Have room service bring us breakfast
Make love all through the day
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can go our separate ways

If we're not back in love by Monday
We can't say we didn't try
But before we bury our love
Let's make sure we've let it die
Sleep a few more nights together
Say the things we used to say
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can go our separate ways

We could find that little café
With the funny sounding name
Get the table by the window
I'll say I love you once again
If the violin player's still there
We'll dance until the break of day
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can go our separate ways

If we're not back in love by Monday
We can't say we didn't try
But before we bury our love
Let's make sure we've let it die
Sleep a few more nights together
Say the things we used to say
If we're not back in love by Monday
We can go our separate ways

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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.
