The first day I saw her was at the train station
She was half black, half Caucasian
At first, yo, I thought she was Asian
But as I get a bit closer her origin in blatant
The best of both worlds, caramel complexion
And I swear when she smiled I almost, got an erection
Piercing green eyes, they shine like emeralds
When she, gave me the wink I could only think with my genitals
She tells me her name as soon as I approach her
It's Charmaine, Charmaine De la Rosa
I say, "is that Spanish" she says, "yeah" I say, "kosher"
Whole time I'm imagining what it would be like to dose her
Train pulls up and we get on it together
Duration of the journey get to know each other better
We exchange numbers and agree to meet up afterwords
She blows me a kiss and with that I departed

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line
Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line

One week and 20 pound phone credit later
I don't just wanna seduce this girl, now I wanna date her
She got a great personality and sense of humor
Next time we meet it just cant come any sooner
We arrange to go out for a drink at a bar
She's already there when I arrive and she looks the part
Even more stunning than I remember
Fuck it, drop-dead gorgeous
Her ass is tight and her breasts are bloody enormous
Hand in hand we walk over to the doorman
He's got a big shiny head yo he looks like George Foreman
He lets her through and asks me for i.D
I'm like "what the hell you talking 'bout man, I'm 19!"
I whip my drivers license out and he lets me in
Then I trip over a step, how embarrassing
Charmaine let's to see it all but pretends not to see
I feel like a fool, she just thinks its sweet

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line
Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line

The night goes a lot smoother than planned
Apart from the little hick-up at the start it's all gone grand
Whenever guys try to chat her up, she shows them the hand
Turns down every dance saying I'm her man
We get a cab back to my place where we get it on
I take off my shirt, she strips right down to the thong
I marvel at her body, voluptuous curves
Shes a real woman, no doubt about it, her
Confidence is sky high
Shes the one who's got me on my back
Shes saying "baby this is your night"
I'm like "alright, its worth a go I suppose"
So, we switch roles and she takes full control
She starts slow, grinding me softly
Whilst kissing, yeah, shes doing me properly
Its when I start thinking, man
This girls gotta be from outta this world or something because she's shocking me
Never felt like this before this was more than sex
Sex was something that you had with skets
Something the next day you regret with a
Girl you wish that you had never met
Na ah, no way man, this had to be love
I couldn't believe I was saying it, but that's what it was
Like a leaf in the autumn, I had fallen
After that nothing else seemed important

Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line
Young girl, get out of my mind
My love for you, is way out of line

So now it's time to hear my predicament, my catch 22
I loved this girl but now I have to cut her loose
So I was talking to one of my boys the very next day
And I, told him all about me and Charmaine
He looks at me in a very strange way
And asks me if De La Rosa is her surname
If shes, mixed race and her eyes are green
I say "yeah" he replies, "blood, that girls fourteen"

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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
