Have mercy, baby, on a poor girl like me
You know I'm falling, falling, falling, at your feet
I'm tingling right from my head to my toes
So help me, help me, help me make the feeling go
'Cause when the loving starts, and the lights go down
And there's not another living soul around
You woo me until the sun comes up
And you say that you love me
Have pity, baby, just when I thought it was over
And now you got me running, running, running for cover
I'm begging you for a little sympathy
And if you use me again it'll be the end of me
'Cause when the loving starts, and the lights go down
There's not another living soul around
You woo me until the sun comes up
And you say that you love me
Baby, baby, hope you're going to stay away
'Cause I'm getting weaker, weaker, every day
I guess I'm not as strong as I used to be
And if you use me again it'll be the end of me
'Cause when the loving starts, and the lights go down
There's not another living soul around
You woo me until the sun comes up
And you say that you love me
'Cause when the loving starts, and the lights go down
There's not another living soul around
You woo me until the sun comes up
And you say that you love me
Say that you love me
Say that you love me
Falling falling falling
Falling falling falling
Falling falling falling
Falling falling falling
Falling falling falling
Falling falling falling

it's "you woo me up till the sun comes up"
a couple of fleetwood mac's songs do deal with drug addictions, but i don't think this one does. she's feeling used because he won't admit he loves her so they both run from it, or maybe he is using her and either way, she's falling. "say you love me" - it's sad, sweet, communication's important!

A lyrical, harmonic song about what it feels like for a woman to feel euphoric from a sexual relationship. Although the "getting weaker every day" and "use me again" parts seem to hint that she knows it's not a healthy thing to do, but she's high off the feeling.

Nice example of boomer giddy optimism that was also a bit jaded.... and the musical arrangement is high style from everyone .. I know Lindsay was an alpha male and so I always hear this arrangement and his overlording of the song structure, instrumentation, etc. These were the days of heavy studio time high production value... they just pushed it further and further. It kind of adds to the tension when you know that about it... it almost makes me think of the song being used on a movie while some violent action is taking place onscreen... as Scorsese might do... in fact there is Mac song in Casino when they are sitting in the Caddy out in the garage to avoid the FBI listening... it's a really tense scene..

I think this song is not about a woman who enjoys the sexual relationship but is feeling tired of being used by the man whom she feels deeply attached to and longs for him to feel the same, while all he wants is to continue the relationship in a purely meaningless and sexual manner.

It is a woman under the spell of a man and she knows he is not good for her in the long run.

It’s “say that you love me”
If you can’t read the subtext, she knows he’s going to break her heart. But she doesn’t care.

Jesse with the long hair.... Robert Earl Keen, Jr. Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's. Battle Royale Word Alive, The This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together. Fortnight Taylor Swift The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro. The Night We Met Lord Huron 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" Mountain Song Jane's Addiction Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it.""There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."Rate These Lyrics
