Friend

Just A Joke

Don't you wanna know what it's like to feel like you have people that you call friends?
Don't you wanna once follow through and prove to us all you're capable of doing something good?
Everyone can see both your faces.
I'm just about done with my last attempt.
Once again this erases the F, R, and I and leaves you alone in the END.
It's sad, I don't feel bad, I have enough things to worry about myself.
I know you've had it rough, that's no excuse and I can't take anymore.
I'm having a hard time dealing with the fact that you breathe every day.
I want you to know how I'm feeling.
At this time I have nothing to say.
You and me are on separate sides of the river
Without a way of making it back.
The bridge was ashes a long time ago.
Can't you see it's not working?
There's no one left around
And that's not how it's supposed to be.
I just can't figure out
It's kinda sad but it would not be that upsetting if I never saw you again.
There's some things that I will not be forgetting
And I'll keep them with me 'till the end

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Page

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
