Anything we should know about your change? -- Close your eyes
Don't want you to see
Where I'm taking you tonight
Let's just say
It's a surprise
Seeing you again
What a surprise
To be with you again

I'm a man
On the scene
See you around
The same way I always do
See you around
The same way I always do
See you around
You know I'm hoping to

Where are we going
Have we gone too far
Losing our clothing
Have we gone too far (4x)

What a surprise
Seeing you again
What a surprise
To be with you again

See you around
The same way I always do
See you around
You know I'm hoping to

Where are we going?
Just close your eyes
Till we get there
You won't know where I hope
See you around
The way I always do you
It's always a surprise
To be with you

    This song is beautiful, the lyrics are simple but say a lot. i think that its about a couple who broke up and rekindle there love again

    since the lyrics say" what a surprise to be with you"and see you around the same way i always do see you around

    which i think means that they had seen each other around but never got the chance to rekindle there love.

    i love the song anyways cant stop listening to it

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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/
