In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Do I want you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Do I need you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
I'm glad that I'm the one who found you
That's why I'm always hangin' around you
Do I love you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Honey, 'deed I do
Hmm, honey, deed I do
I'm glad that I'm the one who found you
That's why I'm always hangin' around you
Oh, do I love you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Ah, 'deed I do
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Do I need you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
I'm glad that I'm the one who found you
That's why I'm always hangin' around you
Do I love you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Honey, 'deed I do
Hmm, honey, deed I do
I'm glad that I'm the one who found you
That's why I'm always hangin' around you
Oh, do I love you?
Oh my, do I?
Honey, 'deed I do?
Ah, 'deed I do

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.
