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.
Dive in to a life
Fall in to the green
Out with my breath
Bursting unseen
Cradle you rock
Hold me in the deep
We all are lost
Searching and free
And to the little hearts
Hardly spoken
And to the wild hearts
Always fierce
Life, I don't know your ways
Life, follow me in grace
Crack in my voice
Where did you go
We've got no choice
Chariots swing low
And to the little hearts
Hardly spoken
And to the wild hearts
Always fierce
Life, I don't know your ways
Life, follow me in grace
Life, I don't know your ways
I will make mistakes
So follow me in grace
So follow me in grace
So follow me in grace
Fall in to the green
Out with my breath
Bursting unseen
Cradle you rock
Hold me in the deep
We all are lost
Searching and free
And to the little hearts
Hardly spoken
And to the wild hearts
Always fierce
Life, I don't know your ways
Life, follow me in grace
Crack in my voice
Where did you go
We've got no choice
Chariots swing low
And to the little hearts
Hardly spoken
And to the wild hearts
Always fierce
Life, I don't know your ways
Life, follow me in grace
Life, I don't know your ways
I will make mistakes
So follow me in grace
So follow me in grace
So follow me in grace

Magical
Ed Sheeran

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
