The night above the street hung like a cloak
The black ribbons of rain began to soak
And Mary Magdalene cracked a joke
Lost among the scriptures that she wrote
Johnny Apollo before the charge
A chaos of regrets a human cage
In Georgiana street Camden town
The years of shame were cut away
The buses and the cabs are slowing down
That change each moment of this day

[Chorus]
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, feminine
Look at me, see what I've become
Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine

He kneels above the line as if to pray
Take him to the hills above the bay
Mechanical pianos fill his head
I'm proud of being so feminine
Another year like this and he'll be dead
The snake that shed it's final skin
I'm not the girl I want to be
I'm not supposed to be like me
The boy will not become a man
Apollo's got another plan

[Chorus]

Look at me, touch my skin
Look at me, I'm feminine
Look at me, touch my skin
Look at me, I'm feminine, feminine, feminine,
Feminine, feminine, feminine

The night above the street hangs like a cloak
Black ribbons of rain began to soak
Johnny Apollo a man no more
The years of pain were cut away
I'm not the man I was before
That change each moment of this day
I'm not the man I was before
The woman in your life your god your soul

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Page

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.
