Oh, I love, oh, I love, oh, I love what you do to my head
When you pull me upstairs and you push me to bed
I love what you do to my head
It's a mess out there
Oh, I love, oh, I love, oh, I love what you do to my heart
When you push me back down and then pull me apart
I love what you do to my heart
It's the best, oh yeah

Oh, I love, oh, I love, oh, I love what you do to my lips
When you suck me inside and you blow me a kiss
I love what you do to my lips
It's so sweet in there
Oh, I love, love, love, love what you do to my hips
When you blow me outside and then suck me like this
I love what you do to my hips
It's the beat, oh, yeah

You're the only one I cry for
The only one I try to please
You're the only one I sigh for
The only one I die to squeeze
And it gets better every day I play
With you it's such a scream
Yeah, it gets better every day I say
With you it's so extreme
Yeah, it gets wetter every day I stay
With you it's like a dream

Oh, I love, oh, I love, oh, I love what you do to my skin
Please slip me on and slide me in
I love what you do to my skin
It's a passion, oh yeah
Oh, I love, love, love, love what you do to my bones
When you slide me up and take me home
I love what you do to my bones
It's the crush, oh, yeah

You're the only one I cry for
The only one I try to please
You're the only one I sigh for
The only one I die to squeeze
And it gets hazier any way I sway
With you, it's such a scream
Yeah, it gets mazier every play I say
With you, it's so extreme
Yeah, it gets crazier every day I stay
With you it's like a dream

Oh, I love, oh, I love, oh, I love what you do to me

    @seanstuarthome Don't assume that the narrator, the "I," in RS's songs is actually him. They often tell a story or describe (poetically, always!) a situation, but it's clear it's sometimes fiction (and/or sarcasm).

This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io

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.

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.

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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
