To Whom It May Concern

Emery

Falling away from you always seems so tragic in my mind
I hear that you're doing well now
Things I wish I could have heard from you
But it's been so long since the first time
We tried, oh but anyway...

All my friends say hello
The phone rings, as soft sheets and daylight surround me
She's gone, they tell me. Are you listening?
For the life of me I can't see
Through this haze of sleepless dreaming

Light breaks, the morning shades wake but rise no more
I could have called her the night before empty broken promises lost
I never said goodbye
I never had the time
I never said goodbye

For the life of me I can't see through this haze of sleepless dreaming

Light breaks, the morning shades wake but rise no more
I should have called her the night before you were broken
Now everything's lost
Everything seems lost
All I see in my dreams...

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/
