Well I thought he'd love me forever
How forever is easily said
Oh how love is like liquid
Liquid over my head
All I wanted was to love him
So I gave him my heart
First thing I learned about love is
Things break when you tear them apart

Will you love me when I'm angry?
Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?
Will you give me your forever?
Will you lay down in this fire?

So my dear are you lonely
Or are you just the lonely type?
The ones who cry with their lovers
The kind who love out of spite?

Will you love me when I'm angry?
Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?
Will you swallow all my wishes?
Will you lay down in this fire?
Will you lay down in this fire?

I'm not going to ever take away
From the person you're trying to be
So you can stay right there inside yourself
I know everybody wants to be free

Well on the night my lover left me
I did not beg his stay
Watched a paper bag trying to jump a chain link fence
And I knew he was just blowing away

Will you love me when I'm angry?
Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?
Will you give me your forever?
Will you lay down in this fire?

Will you love me when I'm angry?
Will you bring me my spirit when my soul is dry?
Will you harbor all my vengeance?
Will you lay down in this fire?
Will you lay down in this fire?
Will you lay down in this fire?

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/

Midnight
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.
