I don't want you to go
I don't want you to go

But it's time to turn your love, give it back
It's time to turn your love, give it back
Give it back
Give it back

I don't want you to know
Let's not go to sleep tonight
It's not that it goes too fast
It's just that goes at all

And it's time to turn your love, give it back
And it's time to turn your love, give it back
And it's time to turn your love, give it back
Give it back, give it back, give it back
Give it back
Give it back
Give it back

Why should I be sad when I'm just you
Why should I be sad baby I'm with you
Why should I be sad when I'm just you
Why should I be sad baby I'm with
Baby I'm with you
Baby I'm with you

And it's time to turn your love, give it back
And it's time to turn your love, give it back
And it's time to turn your love, give it back
Give it back, give it back, give it back
Give it back, give it back, give it back
Give it back, give it back, give it back
Give it back, give it back, give it back

    "Let's not go to sleep tonight it's not that it goes too fast it's just that it goes at all"

    Can it get any better than that? Jack Johnson has this ability to take simple everyday words and make them into sentences that are so beautiful (because of and despite the fact) of their simplicity. and not only make beautiful sentences, but be able to convey in those sentences, a feeling that i think every one of us has experienced, but never been able to put into words, or even into a coherent thought. if that makes any sense at all :-?

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.

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.
