I've been working so hard lately
Then a man comes up to me and says I've been
filling some sort of discription
But I said,
"this ain't my style
it's just a disguise.
Here is my face,
but where are my eyes?"
I'm on my skateboard
Frozen in time
I'm in your stereo
and I feel so fine

This is the time
This is the place
Right in front of your face
And I've got to let you know
everything comes back around in circles
and then you've got to let go

This isn't happening or is it happening?
I need some satisfaction will that happen?
Questioning you keep on questioning
When you need answering why aren't you answering?
Forget your questions and get some answers
Slow down you'll get there faster
Everybody's got their problems baby
but you probably shouldn't sweat it
You shouldn't sweat it
I keep forgetting yesterday happened
I keep forgetting yesterday happened
I keep forgetting yesterday happened
Will it happen one more time again?
I'm in your stereo

This is the time
This is the place
Right in front of your face
And I've got to let you know
everything comes back around in circles
and then you've got to let go

Everything goes in circles
in circles
Everything goes
in circles

then she said, "hey boy
I see you're in need
I've got my own place now.
There's no one here but me.
Do you wanna come inside now?
Out from the cold.
We could sit by the fire
get you out of these wet clothes.
You see that's not my style.
It's hard to believe
you came in here walking.
You left on your knees."

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/

Amazing

Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
