sleep has poisoned me with drunken insecurities. i've forgotten why i've called you. maybe it's or maybe just to let you know. i've got no one to talk to. i've got no one to talk to. it's just as well that you let me go, at least you've got a story you can tell to all those guys who pull up your shirt and rub your thighs.

well i guess i just called to say "hi."

staring at the phone, i'm wondering if you've gotten home. maybe you've always been sleeping. i'll give you one more try, maybe just to say goodbye. i'll find someone to live through. i'm bored of myself only wanting to be you. i'm intimate with your machine, i memorize what it says to me:

"kate and i are busy right now. but i'm sure we'll get a hold of you sometime."

i guess i called to say "hi."

    so, is statistics really this unknown... that like, there's only one comment on any of the songs? well, I have to admit I love the music, but the lyrics aren't the best. thats probably why many/most of the songs on the cd are instrumental...
    this song is awesome though.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
