Girl, I still remember
We were 17 and full of dreams we knew would all come true
Our first taste of forever
Like a good old song, when you turn it on it always feels brand new

And you said "Have we fallen too fast, is it too good to last?"
Then I promised you

I will be the one to save you
When you got nowhere to run
And whenever this world breaks you
I'll be there to pick you up
If you're feeling desperation
And your faith is all but gone
I will give you my last breath so you can carry on
I love you that much, and then some

Here we are together
On an autumn day at your mama's place
Back in your hometown
This love can last forever
I can only say what I'm gonna say with one knee on the ground

"Make me a better man, take a hold of my hand
Honey I promise you"

I will be the one to save you
When you got nowhere to run
And whenever this world breaks you
I'll be there to pick you up
If you're feeling desperation
And your faith is all but gone
I will give you my last breath so you can carry on
I love you that much, and then some

It just gets better and better with every day
One thing's for certain, I'll always say

I will be the one to save you
When you got nowhere to run
And whenever this world breaks you
I'll be there to pick you up
When you're feeling desperation
And your faith is all but gone
I will give you my last breath so you can carry on
I love you that much, and then some
Oh and then some
It just gets better and better with every day...

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
