Give me back my legs
I want to walk like I did
You stole away my breath
Floating over my head

Do you lead me on
With your fingers across my back, well
When I drag you down, you will sink like an anchor
You will, like an anchor, yeah

You'll come down on my side
You'll come down in good time
You'll come down on my side
You'll come down

And as I'm falling out of the sun
Back to where I feel safe again
How did I come undone
Trying to save my own skin

I want to be your hero
I want to show you the good life, the good life, yeah
I want to touch your face before you sink like an anchor
You will, like an anchor, and you

You'll come down on my side
You'll come down in good time
You'll come down on my side
You'll come down

You'll come down
You'll come down
You'll come down

You'll come down on my side
You'll come down in good time
You'll come down on my side
On my side, on my side
You'll come down

    This is such a great song. Sounds like Lewis has a pattern of loving his women to death,literally.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song "Fortnight" by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word "fortnight" shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

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.
