34 Wistful Lyrics From Ed Sheeran’s Autumn Variations to Use as Instagram Captions

2023 is proving to be quite the year for English superstar Ed Sheeran, and after dropping his album – (Subtract) back in May, he's back today with a whole new album called Autumn Variations.

The new 14-track LP is a major departure from previous releases. For one, Ed released it through his record label, Gingerbread Man Records, and secondly, it's his first-ever studio album not to be titled after a mathematical symbol. The vibes are quite different, too, with a sometimes comfy, sometimes melancholic approach that seems to conjure up all of the sentiments that come with the new season. Just in time for fall, here are all of Autumn Variation's very best lyrics—and how to use them as Instagram captions.

For being completely enamored:

"Is this how it feels to be in love? This is magical, this is magical."

-"Magical"

 

For when the clock seems to stop:
