Last week, Ed Sheeran released not one, but TWO new singles for his upcoming album, Divide. The two songs, “Castle on a Hill” and “Shape of You” are two completely different sounds, one being sweet, like most of his older songs, while the other is an upbeat tune to dance to. In a BBC Radio 1 interview, Ed described his new album as "schizophrenic", saying that each song has a different sound.
To help us all get ready for the new album, I have put together a list of all of my favorite Ed Sheeran lyrics!
1. "Take my hand and my heart and soul, I will only have these eyes for you,"
- One, Multiply (2014)
2. "Tell me how to fall in love the way you want me to,"
-Cold Coffee, Songs I Wrote with Amy (2010)
3. "See I could do without a tan on my left hand, where my fourth finger meets my knuckle,"
- Wake Me Up, Plus (2011)
4. "I wanna hold your heart in both hands, not watch it fizzle at the bottom of a coke can,"
- Drunk, Plus (2011)
5. "All I want is the taste that your lips allow,"
- Give me Love, Plus (2011)
6. "I was meant to keep your body warm, but I'm cold as the wind blows so hold me in your arms,"
- Kiss Me, Plus (2011)
7. "I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up,"
- Afire Love, Multiply (2014)
I have great expectations for this album, and I'm sure like always, he won't disappoint. As of right now, we don't have a release date, but hopefully reminiscing on old lyrics and songs will get you as excited as I am for his new album!
