This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Walk me home
I don't want to go all the way alone
Baby won't you walk with me home
Baby won't you take my hand
Come with me now to a special land
Baby won't you walk with me home
3 A.M.
You're on my mind once again
I must have been dreaming
Thought I felt your heartbeat just then
And I wonder how it would be
I was your lady
And you were my friend
I would put my heart in your hand and it would never end
[Chorus]
Baby won't you walk with me home (walk me home)
I don't want to go all the way alone (all alone)
Baby won't you walk with me me home
I don't want to go all the way alone
Baby won't you walk with me home
Baby won't you take my hand
Come with me now to a special land
Baby won't you walk with me home
3 A.M.
You're on my mind once again
I must have been dreaming
Thought I felt your heartbeat just then
And I wonder how it would be
I was your lady
And you were my friend
I would put my heart in your hand and it would never end
[Chorus]
Baby won't you walk with me home (walk me home)
I don't want to go all the way alone (all alone)
Baby won't you walk with me me home

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.

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.
It means that she is lonely and need him or her special someone to walk her home. Keep her safe from anything outside that might battle her. She wants to be in his arms and know that he is there for her.
I love this song. This is the first song i danced to with my boyfriend who i've been going with for a year :)
this song means that she doesnt want to walk home alone and if he walks with her, then she would feel safe
its like the other songs she has
ohh pure innocence for me. There's something about this song that moves me, probably the music (it reminds me of a Mariah Carey song), and the year it came out when I was falling in love for the first time and wanted THAT someone to act like that, and be silly and believe in me...so bad he was (and still is!) always interested in the physical stuff and little less with me when I still adore him :(
Her voice is very soft and sweet in this song. Every once in a while she does that weird pop strain to emphasize a word, but rarely.
This is one of those songs that you forget how sappy the lyrics are because you just like the way it's sung.
