Je hebt gegeten gedronken met me
Aan tafel gezeten
De rekening betaald en misschien
Ook aandacht geschonken
Je hebt me aangekeken en wist geen
Uitweg te vinden
Ik was niet hard maar eerlijk
Ik was voorzichtig maar in het echt
Spuw ik vlammen van woede
Vuur laait op als ik aan je denk ik ben
Één en al 13 jaar en niet echt tot rede
Te brengen
En ik luister aandachtig je luistert
Aandachtig maar

Ik zeg ik zie dat je afdwaalt
Weet je zelf nog wel voor welke wereld
Je werkt dan
Alles is voor ons
Die drukte en afwezigheid ja alles voor ons
Ik zie alleen wat je niet doet waar je niet bent
Ik hoor alleen wat je niet zegt
Maar 't is voor ons
Die drukte en afwezigheid ja alles is voor ons

En ik zat naast je we reden over wegen
Tussen weilanden door
Ik was haast vergeten hoe je was
Gewoon hoe je was
En de stad kwam steeds dichterbij
We zouden eten in een rustig restaurant
En daar namen we de tijd om te praten
Om alles eens uit te spreken
We zijn net twee volwassenen zo
Samen gezellig uit eten
En ik luister aandachtig
Je luistert aandachtig maar

Ik zeg ik zie dat je afdwaalt
Weet je zelf nog wel voor welke wereld
Je werkt dan
Alles is voor ons
Die drukte en afwezigheid ja alles voor ons
Ik zie alleen wat je niet doet waar je niet bent
Ik hoor alleen wat je niet zegt
Maar 't is voor ons
Die drukte en afwezigheid ja alles is voor ons

Ik zeg ik zie dat je afdwaalt
Weet je zelf nog wel voor welke wereld
Je werkt dan
Alles is voor ons die drukte en leegte en stilte
Afwezigheid drukte en leegte en overschil
Ligheid wat wil je wat wil je eigenlijk? We
Hebben niet voor altijd de tijd
Eindigt dit zonder eind

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”

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

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.
