So you run away
Told you all these things
And yet you couldn't stay
Wouldn't even stop to give the time of day
And everything I said won't make these things okay
Cause all I have to say is

Girl you mean
So much to me
I wish that I
Could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3
Across the world
So far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

You smile at me
And wave to me
I know exactly where and what I want to be
And if I wait for this

So run away
What were all the times we could have had that day
Everybody knows that we would be okay
What they say should never matter anyway
So all I have to say is

Girl you mean
So much to me
I wish that I
Could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3
Across the world
So far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

Girl you mean
So much to me
I wish that I
Could make you see
The way you wanted me to be
Is just as easy as 1-2-3
Across the world
So far away
I knew the words to make you stay
Of course it's what I didn't say
Still I knew the words to make you stay

You smile at me
And wave to me
I know exactly where and what I want to be
And if I wish for this

    This song is about "Reggie" and a (girl)friend who he has more than friend feelings for and wants to be more than that. In the lines "The way you wanted me to be, Is just as easy as 1-2-3" he shows that he's willing to change who is is just to be with her if that's what it takes to be accepted. and in the line where he says " I knew the words to make you stay" it's not in a literal sense, he means to stay with him...that's me take at least.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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.

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
