Tonight I'll leave the window open, to anyone who wants to come inside,
Those words you left unspoken, were covered up by an Out of Order
Sign me up to hold you in my arms all night,
I won't say much, but I'll show you how I feel,
And this is how I feel,

She opened up the door, walked out onto the floor,
The faint scent of her hair, had me ready for more,
A conversation like this, should never exist,
About leaving home and relationships,
And I'm falling fast, slow it down, try and relax,
And you're feeling trapped, so take what he said, take it all back,

Tonight I'll leave the window open, to anyone who wants to come inside,
Those words you left unspoken, were covered up by an Out of Order
Sign me up to hold you in my arms all night,
I won't say much, but I'll show you how I feel,

Well I woke up today with the promise you made,
And the smile on my face, that you won't break,
With each slice of my wrist, my hands on your hips,
And this kiss on your lips, that you won't miss,
Oh, no,

I'm watching you close tonight,
(I'm watching you close tonight)
Save your poor excuses for your friends,
You know you wanted this,
You know you needed it, and,
For all those times we felt like just being ourselves,
It wasn't enough,
Open up your eyes and see that you're all that I need,

Tonight I'll leave the window open, to anyone who wants to come inside,
Those words you left unspoken, were covered up by an Out of Order
Sign me up to hold you in my arms all night,
I won't say much, but I'll show you how I feel,

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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/

Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
