It's too much, not enough
What you need I don't get
I don't know why you never say, you never do
Is this my luck again
Silent words never shed
All I get is you turning away
You turn

So cold
It's never enough it's
always too much
For what you never say
What you never go and say
You're so cold
It's never enough it's
always too much
What you never say
Never do
Never say

Is it me that you see changing
What you think you need
All I can say is I'll always
trade me for you
Is it my heart I break
Hard to give what you won't take
If you did would you throw it away
And turn

So cold

Our time is slipping away
Slipping away

Isn't my word enough
What I say is what you get
And all I get is you turning away
You turn

So cold

Our time is slipping away
Slipping away

    I think it is about a possible relationship, but the girl can't admit her feelings so she keeps turning away from something she thinks she might be in love with.

    i think its about a relationship also, however, i think that she is using him. or somewhat of the like. he likes her but he is not reciveing the same affection back in turn. "Isn't my word enough" "What I say is what you get" "And what I get is you turning away"

    or this next verse explains it better

    "Your so cold"
    "It's never enough" this is his imput into the relastionship, and to her is always "It's always too much" * not good enough, either too much or not enough "For what you never say" ^ ^ this is her lack of imput, she never tells or shows him affection "Never do, never say" ^

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.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
