Pillow Talk

Wild Child

when i sleep, i'm dreaming
when i sleep, i'm dreaming
when i sleep, i'm dreaming for you

feel my heart it's aching
wish i could stop breaking
spend all day just thinking for you

when you sleep, i'm thinking
when you sleep, i'm thinking
when you sleep, i'm thinking for her

wish i still could love you
floating high above you
just don't think i'm sinking for you

this pillow talk
don't wake me up
my dream is done
i'm still in love
i know your fears
just lying here
i think i'll leave
please don't my dear
this pillow talk will wake me up
no matter what i'm dreaming

when you leave, i'm lying
when you leave, i'm lying
when you leave, i'm lying for you

and i know it hurts you
nothing else i can do
you won't let me, though i want to

when you leave, i'm lonely
when you leave, i'm lonely
when you leave, i'm lonely for you

roll around in our bed
can't stop thoughts in my head
the screaming girl just gets up for you

this pillow talk
don't wake me up
my dream is done
i'm still in love
i know your fears
just lying here
i think i'll leave
please don't my dear
this pillow talk will wake me up
no matter what i'm dreaming

pack my things, i'm leaving
wish i could stop breathing
know you'll be coming back for me
if we fight and make up
if we fight and make up
if we fight, we wake up lonely

this pillow talk
don't wake me up
my dream is done
i'm still in love
i know your fears
just lying here
i think i'll leave
please don't my dear
this pillow talk will wake me up
no matter what i'm dreaming

    I love this song and this artist, so thank you for posting some of their lyrics. I wish I knew exactly what this song was getting at, but one thing I noticed was a lot of the songs on this album seem to take a very realistic approach and perspective towards the ever-so-familiar ups and downs of a relationship. I think that's one of the reasons I love this album so much -- Not only is it musically excellent, but also so easily relatable and down to earth.

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

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.

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.
