See that we're so close together
So far we're just friends, but I've been wonder whether

I am just imagining you
Do you really have a thing for me?
Like I think I see when I see you smile and the smile's for me
I've gotta tell ya

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Trying to say I want to be your number one

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Gonna make you love me 'fore I'm done

Late at night when I, when I go sleep
Picture in my mind, I see you and me

I am telling you what I want to be
You, you say you are in love with me

Even though this'll

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Trying to say I want to be your number one

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Gonna make you love me 'fore I'm done.

I'm gonna make you love me
Yeah I'm gonna make you love me
Yeah I'm gonna make you love me from now on

I am just imagining you
Do you really have a thing for me?
Like I think I see when I see you smile and the smile's for me
I've gotta tell ya

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Trying to say I want to be your number one

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Gonna make you love me 'fore I'm...

Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Hey you! I want to be your girlfriend
Gonna make you love me

Yeah, I'm gonna make you love me 'fore I'm done.
Yeah, I'm gonna make you love me 'fore I'm done.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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/

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.

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.
