You spoke your piece
with a trembling voice then turned away
I'm looking for reasons why do i always act this way
Running on self pity I was only thinking about myself
you said I never considered you so you need some time alone

Now you're upstairs and I'm going down and I know that it's my fault you're not around
So this is loss how sweet regret just don't give up on me yet

I know that I've hurt you I made it harder than it has to be
if I wasn't so selfish would you want to stay with me
Under any circumstance could you give me one more chance
I want so much to turn it around but this old behavior brings me down

Now you're upstairs and I'm going down and I know that it's my fault you're not around
So this is loss how sweet regret just don't give up on me yet

With an aching chest and a two ton heart
I retrace my steps trying to find my part
Regretting words words that came out wrong at the Second Cup at the corner of Queen and John
Queen and John

    This song reminds me a lot of how I screwed things up with my ex gf, and how I didnt wanna break up with her. I wanted her back and it was all my fault. Plus.. Queen and John (streets) are just down the road from me, here in Toronto :) And I go to that Second Cup all the time.

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
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.
