This summarizes the lyrics of two songs: 1) "Daniel" by Elton John is about missing a brother named Daniel who has travelled away. The singer sees Daniel's red tail lights heading to Spain and waves goodbye, thinking it's just the clouds in his eyes. He reflects on how Daniel has experienced more pain than him. 2) "Love Story" by Taylor Swift tells a romantic story about falling in love with someone (Romeo) despite her father's disapproval. They sneak out to be together and she begs him not to go, and he proposes they run away together to be alone, just saying "yes."
