I count down the days
Until we say goodbye
I wish there was a way
That I could just stop time
Forever
Remember
Summer nights we spent together
On my car
Counting stars
Just wishing I could stay

I know we only met a month ago
With you
It's always hard to let the feelings go
When summer fades to fall
I'd stay
Should have known that this would come and go
With you
And all we'll get is just the afterglow
When summer fades to fall

Far away from you
Only time will tell
When you're back in school
Will you meet someone else?
Remember
Forever
Summer nights we spent together
Holding hands
Making plans
Just wishing I could stay

Should have known that this would come and go
With you
And all we'll get is just the afterglow
When summer fades to fall
Should have known that this would come and go
With you
And all we'll get is just the afterglow
When summer fades to fall

Every time I think of you
I don't wanna face the truth
Why wait forever knowing we may never follow through?
Guess I should get over you
But I can't let go so soon
I'll wait forever knowing we may never follow through?
Why wait forever just for you

I count down the days
Until we say goodbye
I wish there was a way
That I could just stop time
Just wishing I could stay

Should have known that this would come and go
With you
And all we'll get is just the afterglow
When summer fades to fall
When summer fades to fall
When summer fades to fall
Should've know that this would come and go
And all we'll get is just the afterglow
When summer fades to fall

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.

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
