Once upon a time there was a very friendly princess
Who was captured
By a big, grumpy, invisible wizard. he locked her in
The tippy top of his
Tower and late at night when she was very tired,
Getting ready to fall
Asleep on her bed of stones, she would look out the
Window, up into
The sky, and twiddle her thumbs and sing a song that
She just made
Up. she didn't know why. it was just about a feeling
That she had. and it
Sounded something like this...

I love you from far away
Like I love the moon
You are the brightest star
In my cartoon

someday I'll find you
Whoever you are
I know you are out there
But where?
You couldn't be far

now this princess got very very smart after years of
Thinking in the tower
And it began to dawn on her that perhaps the
Invisible wizard wasn't
Even there! so, she approached the gigantic door
That kept her locked

into the tower and she OPENED it! then tiptoed
Carefully down the
Stairs to the bottom where lo and behold she walked
Into a clearing in
The woods and she was free! and you'll never
Believe it but there was
An entire village of forest animals and people
Dancing and singing. they had been
Waiting for her all these years! they sang together...

I love you from far away
Like I love the moon
You are the brightest star
In my cartoon

someday I'll find you
Whoever you are
I know you are out there
But where?
You couldn't be far

well, that's the end of the story
I'm getting kind of tired
I think I'll go to sleep now, goodnight!

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”

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.
