In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Disenchanted Lullaby
Sing me yours, I'll sing you mine
Sing with me now what's a boy to do?
What's a boy to do?
Sing along for yesterday
Sing along my soul today
Sing along another song for you
What's a boy to do?
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
Whispering to pass the time
Whisper for the days gone by
Whisper with the voice inside of you
With this ring you will be mine
With this ring I'll multiply
With this ring surrendering to you
What's a boy to do?
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
Sing me yours, I'll sing you mine
Sing with me now what's a boy to do?
What's a boy to do?
Sing along for yesterday
Sing along my soul today
Sing along another song for you
What's a boy to do?
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
Whispering to pass the time
Whisper for the days gone by
Whisper with the voice inside of you
With this ring you will be mine
With this ring I'll multiply
With this ring surrendering to you
What's a boy to do?
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I may be scattered
A little shattered
What does it matter?
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you
No one has a fit like I do
I'm the only one that's fits you

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
I don't think it's quite that vulgar...I think it's about someone fairly dysfunctional who's in love with someone else and has been for quite a while, and it's tearing him apart because she's been rather distant and skeptical about the relationship. He's claiming that even though he's screwed up, he's the best person around for her.
