“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
Enya herself said in an interview or something (I can't recall where) that Ebudae was created from the styles of whistle-while-you-work type songs, like women sing while working around the house and tending to daily business.
The idea of women singing while they work is nearly universal... in Ireland, Scotland, America, China, Germany, Poland, etc... It's easy to imagine that in my head when I listen to this song... a mother with her hair in a bun and a plain-looking dress humming a tune to herself as she scrubs a garment against a washboard as her children play nearby.
