Every time I sigh and smile
To nothing at all
I'm breathing for you baby
Wishing I could call

The nights last so much longer
when you're home alone
Waiting for that girl
To make her way back home

Days and days
Counting down
Girl, oh girl
Come back to town

Take my hand, follow me
There's no place else I'd rather be
Our lips lock and our hearts beat fast
Girl, I know we can make this last

I've heard that good things come
To those who wait
And girl, I know you know
That I've marked that date

Everything I'm looking for
With you, I've found
I'm hooked and don't want out
You've got me bound

Days and days
Counting down
Girl, oh girl
Come back to town

Take my hand, follow me
There's no place else I'd rather be
Our lips lock and our hearts beat fast
Girl, I know we can make this last

I haven't seen you in how many days?
I'm missing you so much in so many ways
Closing my eyes, you're still all that I see
Nothing like distance will be stopping me
There's no going back now, I've fell to the ground
I'm not getting up, 'cause it's you that I've found
All these sudden emotions have taken me
To someone and somewhere I'd much rather be

Take my hand, follow me
There's no place else I'd rather be
Our lips lock and our hearts beat fast
Girl, I know we can make this last (x2)

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.

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
