We've tried so hard to understand
But we can't
We held the world out in our hands
And you ran away

It takes some time to let you go
And it shows

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls
And remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all

Now we could follow you back home
But we won't
Is this what you had waited for
Just to be alone?

It takes some time to let you go
And it shows

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls
And remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all

You never
You never said
This wasn't what you wanted
Was it?
Was it?

This isn't what you wanted
This isn't what you wanted

'Cause all we know is falling, it falls
And remember, 'cause I know that we won't forget at all

    I'm utterly astounded by this band, they're so young and have so much talent to offer. I hope they get the recognition and not the fame they deserve.

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/

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
