If You Only Knew

Philmore

If you only knew, the way I feel about you
if you only knew, the love that's in my heart
if you only knew, how much I care about you
if you only knew, how much I want to be apart of you

you know, I died just for you
oh and I, I gave myself for you

if you only knew, the way I feel about you
if you only knew, the love that's in my heart
I suffered and gave my life
I stretched out my arms out and died
the tears ran off from my eyes for you

you know I died just for you
and I, I gave myself for you

I love you soo much
I love you soo much
look at the love in my eyes
when will you realize
my blood has paid the price for you

you know I died just for you
and I, I gave myself for you
I love you soo much
I love you soo much
I did it all for you
if you only knew the way I feel about you

    At first I thought this song was about a a gril, but when I saw the lyrics I noticed it is much more.

    This song is about the love a father has for all his children. For God so loved the world that he gave His begotten son so that whosoever beleaves in Him shall not parish, but have everlasting life. JOHN 3;16

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
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.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
