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.
I'm having so much fun on my own
I wanna tell somebody
I'm having so my fun all alone
I wanna let somebody know
How good it feels to be alone
How good it feels to be alone
I'm having so much fun by myself
I want the whole world to know
That I don't need anybody else
To row my boat
And how good it feels to have no body to make conversations with
And how good it feels to have no body to keep up relations with
How good it feels to be alone
How good I feels to be alone
OH but I get so afraid when it's late at night
I stare up at the sky looking for life
And then the cold comes over me and I know that this aint right
I remember nobody should be living alone
How good it feels to have somebody to make conversations with
How good it feels to have somebody to keep up relations with
How good it feels to have a friend be together again
How good it feels to have you
How good it feels
I wanna tell somebody
I'm having so my fun all alone
I wanna let somebody know
How good it feels to be alone
How good it feels to be alone
I'm having so much fun by myself
I want the whole world to know
That I don't need anybody else
To row my boat
And how good it feels to have no body to make conversations with
And how good it feels to have no body to keep up relations with
How good it feels to be alone
How good I feels to be alone
OH but I get so afraid when it's late at night
I stare up at the sky looking for life
And then the cold comes over me and I know that this aint right
I remember nobody should be living alone
How good it feels to have somebody to make conversations with
How good it feels to have somebody to keep up relations with
How good it feels to have a friend be together again
How good it feels to have you
How good it feels

Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
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.
