It’s a love song that conveys the feeling of loving someone just as they are as directly as possible.

Created by the globally popular British singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, it sings of his unwavering, pure love for his wife.

Carried by the warm tones of an acoustic guitar, it gently soaks into the heart with an affection for everyday moments and a deep sentiment that finds beauty in someone’s true, unadorned self.

Released in September 2017, the song is included on the acclaimed album ÷ (Divide).

A later version featuring Beyoncé reached No.

1 on the U.S.

charts.

It’s a gem of a ballad that stirs the emotions and overflows with gratitude for someone dear.

I remember it being used in commercials and such, but I think the lyrics depict shocking themes like drugs.

It’s not an overtly “depressing song,” but the more you learn about it, the more the intensity and sadness of the lyrics come through, so I think it can be classified as a depressing song.
