Hey
(Ho) I been trying to do it right
(Hey) I been living a lonely life
(Ho) I been sleepin' here instead (Hey) I been sleepin' in my bed
(Ho) I been sleepin' in my bed (hey ho)
(Ho) so show me family
(Hey) all the blood that I will bleed
(Ho) I don't know where I belong
(Hey) I don't know where I went wrong
(Ho) but I can write a song (hey)
(Two, three, four) I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet' (ho)
Hey (come on now)

(Ho) I don't think you're right for him
(Hey) think of what it might have been if we
(Ho) took a bus to chinatown
(Hey) I'd be standin' on canal (ho) and Bowery (hey)
(Ho) she'd be standin' next to me (hey)
(Two, three, four) I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
Love we, need it now
'Cause oh, we're bleedin' out
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me, you're my sweet'(ho)

The Lumineers’ hit single “Ho Hey” is a catchy folk-pop anthem that explores the themes of love, family, and belonging. The repetitive, upbeat chorus, “I belong with you, you belong with me, you’re my sweetheart,” is a universal sentiment that resonates with many listeners. The song is driven by acoustic guitar, tambourine, and the harmonious vocals of Wesley Schultz and Jeremiah Fraites.
The lyrics describe the singer’s struggle to find his place in the world and his longing for a sense of family and belonging. He acknowledges that he has made mistakes and doesn’t know where he went wrong, but he takes solace in his ability to write songs. The chorus represents the idea of finding one’s soulmate or true love, and the belief that this person is meant to be with them always, regardless of any obstacles or challenges that may arise. The bridge of the song adds a note of urgency, with the lines “Love we, need it now/Let’s hope for some/’Cause oh, we’re bleedin’ out” suggesting that the singer is in a desperate situation and needs love to heal him.

To everyone who's studying with this music:
Checklist:
• A bottle of water, at least 1liter. Your brain works better if it has enough water and drinking helps you to concentrate💧
• Your charger. You sometimes don't even notice that your device's battery is going down, so better have it plugged in all the time🔋
• Your headphones. You will be able to focus more with headphones because it blocks background noises. Also, if it's a late-night study session, you won't wake up anyone🎧
• a tea or coffee. Coffee keeps you awake, green or black tea can make you feel more awake as well.☕
• Your study/work stuff: your laptop/tablet/phone, a few pens, paper, or whatever you need.⌨
•Anything else you could need, what about a heating pad, a blanket, a good lamp, if you have a pet have it near you,so you have a study buddy 🐈
Reminder: After an hour, you should stand up and walk a bit around. Better stop the music or put on different music for the break. Open your window, even if it's cold outside. Fresh air will make it better, trust me.
You could also lay your head down on your desk for ten minutes and listen to a podcast. Or, if you have to read a book, listen to the audiobook of it. You can also listen to the audiobook while doing another thing, that's even better than listening to music while reading the book.
I hope y'all had a good day, if not, that's okay too. Remember to take care of yourself and try to get some sleep tonight <3 Love You

I think of my daughter (6 years old) every time I hear this song. When she was a baby, we would listen to this song (lullaby version) to help her sleep. She’s my world! ❤️
