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.
One, two
One, two, three (I wanna be)
I got a, I got a five star dinner for ya
I drove a, I drove a, a brand new 'cedes for ya
Red rover, red rover, I bring them kisses over
The vibes were getting insane
I'm trying, I'm trying to be real classy for ya
No lying, no lying, I got real feelings for ya
This clothing, this clothing is turning into torture
Got one thing left on my brain
I wanna be naked with you
With all our time, just the nude
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave our clothes on the floor, put a sock on the door
I wanna be naked with you
At least I'm tellin' the truth
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave a drop on the top, bring your body on mine
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be
Natural, natural, there's nothing dirty 'bout it
Masterful, masterful, keep putting pressure on it
True loving, true loving, the thing God finally founded
The vibes are getting insane, hey
I haven't been so alive since the past life
I swear to God, you were mine in a past life
I wanna be naked with you
With all our time, just the nude
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave our clothes on the floor, put a sock on the door
I wanna be naked with you
At least I'm tellin' the truth
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave a drop on the top, bring your body on mine
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be naked with you
I haven't been so nice, since the past life
I wanna be
I swear to God, you were mine in a past life
I wanna be
I wanna be naked with you
Naked with you (I wanna be)
I wanna be naked with you
With all our time, just the nude
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave our clothes on the floor, put a sock on the door
I wanna be naked with you
At least I'm tellin' the truth
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave a drop on the top, bring your body on mine
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be
I wanna be naked with you
One, two, three (I wanna be)
I got a, I got a five star dinner for ya
I drove a, I drove a, a brand new 'cedes for ya
Red rover, red rover, I bring them kisses over
The vibes were getting insane
I'm trying, I'm trying to be real classy for ya
No lying, no lying, I got real feelings for ya
This clothing, this clothing is turning into torture
Got one thing left on my brain
I wanna be naked with you
With all our time, just the nude
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave our clothes on the floor, put a sock on the door
I wanna be naked with you
At least I'm tellin' the truth
I wanna be naked with you
We'll leave a drop on the top, bring your body on mine
I wanna be

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
