Invite your sister
Into the garden
All cannot play
Fistful of wildflowers
Handpicked by someone
Who nearly fell

(Ah ah ah ah ah, ah)
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)

Friend, foe, or feather
If we row to get there
Give my gift to you
In all kinds of weather
If not now, not ever
Please do not go

Hands over your eyes
In all of your sighs
Is it the right time
For the game we play
In all kinds of weather
If not now, not ever
This is the right time
For a holiday

(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)

You came to me in my dreams
And you spoke of everything
Of sweet remedies and diamond rings
Holy words dig early beds

(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)

    some corrections:

    hands over your eyes we're all on your side

    and

    sweet were the days, the night was breathing only words dig early beds

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”

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.

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.

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.
