Ed Sheeran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have to move home
But I want to stay with you
For all of the summer
I have my plan
That you won't remember
If you want to see the world
Then please ask your mother
I cannot hold your hand
To watch you go
Oh, I am a liar
As you might know
I need you now
I need your touch
And your lips
I need your smile
And your kiss
'Cause you're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
You're so
You're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
You're so
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
I see your voice
From my window
When it is late at night
It'll show me your shadow
I have my plan
But you won't remember it
But if you want to see the world
Then please ask your mother
Now, well I cannot hold your hand
To watch you go
Well I am a liar
As you might know
I need you now
I need your touch
And your lips
I need your smile
And your kiss
'Cause you're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
You're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
And you're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
You're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
Now, these words I say mean
You're so amazing
And I've noticed lately
I need you, maybe
And these words I say mean
You're so amazing
And I've noticed lately
I need you, maybe
'Cause you're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
You're so cool
You're so beautiful
You're so
And you're so
In this song, Ed Sheeran expresses his conflicting emotions. He is unsure about his future plans and must move back home, but he does not want to leave his love interest. He reminisces about their summer together and shares that he has a plan that she won't remember. He wants her to ask her mother if she wants to see the world, and this may indicate a longing for her to be with him. Ed cannot hold her hand to watch her go, and he is honest in admitting that he is a liar. He needs her touch, lips, smile, and kiss, and is amazed by her beauty.
The lyrics showcase Ed Sheeran's vulnerability and honesty. He admits that he needs the person he loves and is haunted by the thought of leaving her. The use of repetition in the chorus, with the lyrics "you're so cool, you're so beautiful, you're so," emphasizes how he values her and her presence in his life.
Line by Line Meaning
I'm filled up with doubt
I am feeling uncertain and unsure
I have to move home
I have to relocate to a new place
But I want to stay with you
I desire to remain with you
For all of the summer
I want to spend the entire summer season with you
I have my plan
I have a strategy in mind
That you won't remember
But you might not recall it later on
If you want to see the world
In case you wish to explore different places
Then please ask your mother
Kindly seek your mother's permission
I cannot hold your hand
I cannot accompany you physically
To watch you go
To see you as you leave
Oh, I am a liar
I must admit that I am dishonest
As you might know
You probably already suspect
I need you now
I require your presence at this moment
I need your touch
I crave the sensation of your skin on mine
And your lips
I yearn for the feeling of your lips on mine
I need your smile
I long to see the expression of joy on your face
And your kiss
I desire to feel your lips against mine
'Cause you're so cool
Because you are awesome
You're so beautiful
You are gorgeous
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
I see your voice
I can hear the sound of your voice
From my window
Through my windowpane
When it is late at night
During the late hours of the night
It'll show me your shadow
It will cast your silhouette
Now, well I cannot hold your hand
I still cannot accompany you physically
And you're so cool
You continue to be amazing
And you're so beautiful
You are still gorgeous
Now, these words I say mean
The words I am about to say signify
You're so amazing
You are incredible
And I've noticed lately
I have recently realized
I need you, maybe
I might need you after all
