One less call to answer
Feeling full of despair
Don't think I can get through it
Just one last prayer

And it's a leap of faith
When you believe there's someone out there
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh
And when I call out to you will you be right there?
Right there

Searching for the answer
Nobody seems to care
Oh, how I wish that you were here beside me
To wipe away my tears

And it's a leap of faith
When you believe there's someone out there
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh
And when I call out to you will you be right there?
Right there

Waiting for the answer
Remembering times we would share
Somehow I feel you here beside me
Even though your not there

And it's a leap of faith
When you believe there's someone out there
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh
And when I call out to you will you be right there?
Right there

Right there
And I'll be waiting by the window for your smile to come through
And I'll be waiting in the darkness when I call out to you
And I'll remember when you told me
I could trust in you

And it's a leap of faith
When you believe there's someone out there
It's a leap of faith
When you believe that someone cares, oh
And when I call out to you will you be right there?
Right there

It's a leap of faith
And I believe that you are out there
It's a leap of faith and I believe you truly care, oh
And when I call out to you I know you'll be right there
Right there

And it's a leap of faith

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”

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
