If I could switch you out, then I'd replace you from the cushion you sit upon now
You're inches too close, my body speaks it so, if I could fold like a love letter

I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong in you

I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong in you

I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong in you

I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong
I could feel the wrong in you

You take your turn
Your engine in drive
Your boulevard of heartburn
Your Hiroshima inside
You take your turn
Your explosion subsides
Your boulevard of heartburn
The burning for you arrives

If I could switch you out then I'd replace you from the cushion you sit upon now
You're inches too close my body speaks it so, if I could fold like a love letter

If I could fold like a love letter
If I could fold like a love letter

    The way Bain's told it, he had just recently broken up with a girl he'd been with awhile, and this female acquaintance of his who knew that started flirting with him really heavily one night, and he just wasn't ready for it, and this song's how he felt about that.

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.
