I wanna start by saying "Thank you"
I'm gonna miss you, honey
You gave me things that I can't buy back with money
You changed my life
You've been my world
There's no other girl that looks like you, darling
Those eyes
That tongue, those teeth, that face, that body
Even though we've gone to outer space
Still no way you can take his place

You're not him
She's not him
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I just can't fall in love with you
'Cause you're not him
Yeah, she's not him

And why, why can't I love you, baby?
Like I wanna love you, baby
I'm sorry
And maybe it's beyond my control
Some sort of chemical reaction
Making it impossible to let him go

You're not him (no)
She's not him
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I just can't fall in love with you
'Cause you're not him
Yeah, she's not him

And you don't deserve all the bullshit I put you through
And you, you deserve a heart much bigger than one that's torn in two

Oh, oh
You're not him
Yeah, she's not him
Every time you walk through my door
I swear to God, you're more beautiful than before
But you're not him
No matter what you say
No matter what you do
I just can't fall in love with you
'Cause you're not him
Yeah, she's not him

    My Interpretation

    Perhaps one of the most poignant songs of her album, something I did not expect from Miley Cyrus. Many have cited this as a 'pansexual milestone', discussing loving one gender, being in love with another. To me, this song's message is simple. It is about struggling with your emotions, balancing them with your sexual identity. On many levels, this is relatable to many individuals amongst this generation. I personally believe that this is an apology towards one of Miley's alleged ex's (Stella Maxwell?...), for not being able to give your entire self to another, because you still want to be with another person, and even though you are physically attracted, that in itself, is not enough to justify being with someone.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
