Bury me deep in love
Bury me deep in love
Take me in under your wing
Bury me deep in love

There's a chapel deep in a valley
For travelling strangers in distress
It's nestled among the ghosts of the pines
Under the shadow of a precipice

When a lonesome climbing figure
Slips and loses grip
Tumbled into a crevice
To his icy mountain crypt

Bury him deep in love
Bury him deep in love
Take him in under your wing
Bury him deep in love

When the rock below is shaking
The heart inside is quaking
How long this cold dark night is taking
Bury me deep in love

Bury me deep in love
Bury me deep in love
Take me in under your skin
Bury me deep in love

And the little congregation gathers
Prays for guidance from above
They sing
Hear our meditation
Lead us not into temptation
Give us some kind of explanation
Bury us deep in love

You may lose me on the east face
You may lose me on the west
I may be covered over in the night
Bury me deep in your love
Yes

Bury me deep in love
Bury me deep in love
Take me in under your skin
Bury me deep in love

Bury me deep in love
Bury me deep in love
Take me in under your wing
Bury me deep in love

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/
