And I long to go
Love started. Here
Shoot your star
Be a light
Is that

Don't you call
Deer stop bottle in a shell
Shoot a thousand stars over me
Love to come home
You've arrested a knight

Say my name,
Whisper it
Don't ever turn
I'm deliciously wired
I'm falling in a cloud
Shoot a thousand stars over
Say my name
Whisper it

    Well since no one has gives a guess as to what this is about I will give it a shot. I think it's a dark love song about need and rejection. But thats just a hazy guess.

    my question is why aren't all the lyrics revealed? not even in the cd jacket. she says at some point "you've arrested me now" or something like that, and it's never written out.

    Song Meaning

    I thnk this song is about two people making love, not having sex, making love. I also think it has a strong dark meaning to it, maybe to do with the past.

    this seems so reminiscent of radiohead circa 2000-2002; i.e., kid a/amnesiac (the best days, in my opinion). not just the warped voice thing, but the whole atmosphere of the song, it's very spinning-plates-esque. also i'm sorry i can't contribute on meaning, i can't understand a damn word she says, nor pick out the lyrics written here.

    This song is totally about sex. It's "Don't you come, deer stop...Shoot your thousand stars over me"... Pretty clear she wants to get jizzed on.

    i think its about her lover not coming home, leaving her feeling abandoned or alone, (deer stop bottle in a shell) i know Alison loves her mythology and half man/half animal creation, so could the deer represent her love, the bottle = alcohol, shell = what's holding him from her?, you've arrested a knight = love is restraining him from expression, shoot your thousand stars over me = she wants his dreams/her dreams to come true, or possible DUI? no phone call from jail, hah... who knows what her brilliant mind exactly means, but it's absolutely deliciously beautiful.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/

Amazing

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.
