(Our love was lost)
Hey, hey, haha (where'd you go? Where'd you)
(But now we've found it)
Oh yeah, uh (where'd you go? Where'd you go? Where'd you go?)
(Our love was lost, oh, lost)
Doin' the happy dance (where'd you, where'd you go?)
(And hope was gone)
Doin' the happy dance (where'd you go? Haha)
Doin' the happy dance (haha, yeah)

(Our love was lost)
Where'd you go? What'd you do?
How the hell you make me fall in love with you? (But now we've found it)
And then you leave, now you're gone
All I got is this damn song (and if you flash your heart)
So I can feel but I can't touch (oh, heart)
You said my love was a bit too much (I won't deny it)
Broke my heart, can't find no crutch
So why don't you come on back home? (Can I spit?)

Hey, I'm a fuckin' workaholic with a passion in my heart
Treatin' rappin' as a art in which you have to be apart of
I just copped a new car to hear it start up
Try to do the right thing and please karma
All I want to know is
Where the fuck did you have to go?
I've been waitin' on you, baby
Why don't you leave and come on home?
I can't be mad, I'm livin' my dream
(Goin' all around the globe)
Though you said you think you love me
(You need to let me know)
So I've been fuckin' all these hoes
And I've been blowin' all this cash
'Cause, baby, this just the beginnin'
And I'ma make all of it back

(Our love was lost)
Where'd you go? What'd you do?
How the hell you make me fall in love with you? (But now we've found it)
And then you leave, now you're gone
All I got is this damn song (hey, hey, hey) (and if you flash your heart)
So I can feel but I can't touch (hey, hey, hey) (oh, heart)
You said my love was a bit too much (hey) (I won't deny it)
Broke my heart, can't find no crutch
So why don't you come on back home? (Hey, hey, hey)

It's all good, everybody tryna eat tonight
Tryna go to sleep, havin' good dreams tonight
You go home, it might get better
All I know, it don't last forever
So take it while you got it, try to get a little more
They say I'm gettin' better than I ever been before
Well, that's for sure, tell 'em what I do
Rap keep me fed like a spoon gettin' soup
I've been out here on the road and now they missin' me at home
All these ex-girls that I used to know are hittin' up my phone
But I ain't here, I guess you can call back
Sex, drugs, and rock-and-roll, I think I'll take all that

(Our love was lost)
Where'd you go? What'd you do?
How the hell you make me fall in love with you? (But now we've found it)
And then you leave, now you're gone
All I got is this damn song (and if you flash your heart)
So I can feel but I can't touch (oh, heart)
You said my love was a bit too much (I won't deny it)
Broke my heart, can't find no crutch
So why don't you come on back home?

Yeah
Huh-huh, and it gets no better than this
Huh, yeah, it gets no better than this
Yeah, it gets no better, yeah, it gets no better
Yeah, it gets no better, this shit forever
Get no better, it get no better
Yeah, it get no better, yeah, this shit forever
Bum-bada-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum, ba-dum
You can cut it here and then we're done

    I love love love the temper trap, but this is my favorite song.. by far! been listening to it for a while now... and i just cant get tired of it haha.

    when he sings: " Our love was lost in the rubble are all things that you've, you've been dreaming of Keep me in mind when you're ready I am here to take you every time"

    It always gives me chills :)

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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

When We Were Young
Blink-182
This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.
