This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
"Go home. I'd be surprised
If you could find it with those eyes."
"Ah, go ahead and get hit by a bus."
It was the look in your eyes
When you said something like
"It's just us." ("It's just us.")
Tears streaming down my cheeks, (Tears streaming down my cheeks)
"Just take me down to Lansdowne Street. ("Just take me down to Lansdowne Street)
Fenway Park? C'mon, it's not like they keep it hid!" (Fenway Park? C'mon, it's not like they keep it hid!")
It was the look in your eyes you said, (It was the look in your eyes you said)
"No one's going to hurt me like you did." ("No one's going to hurt me like you did.")
Rolling Over it a thousand times (Rolling Over it a thousand times)
In the narrow flume of my mind. (In the narrow flume of my mind)
O what I'd give for just one small caress. (O what I'd give for just one small caress)
It was the look in your eyes (It was the look in your eyes)
When you said something like (When you said something like)
"Yer possessed." ("Yer possessed.")
You're possessed. (You're possessed)
If you could find it with those eyes."
"Ah, go ahead and get hit by a bus."
It was the look in your eyes
When you said something like
"It's just us." ("It's just us.")
Tears streaming down my cheeks, (Tears streaming down my cheeks)
"Just take me down to Lansdowne Street. ("Just take me down to Lansdowne Street)
Fenway Park? C'mon, it's not like they keep it hid!" (Fenway Park? C'mon, it's not like they keep it hid!")
It was the look in your eyes you said, (It was the look in your eyes you said)
"No one's going to hurt me like you did." ("No one's going to hurt me like you did.")
Rolling Over it a thousand times (Rolling Over it a thousand times)
In the narrow flume of my mind. (In the narrow flume of my mind)
O what I'd give for just one small caress. (O what I'd give for just one small caress)
It was the look in your eyes (It was the look in your eyes)
When you said something like (When you said something like)
"Yer possessed." ("Yer possessed.")
You're possessed. (You're possessed)

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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
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.
I think Gord Downie's songs are just so ridiculously hard to interpret. It's like he's making you feel them rather than understand them. Which I love. I love the tone. I think he's just throwing his own personal experiences into crazy metaphors that no one will understand anyways. "it's just us" I love that line. I also love how Gordie uses parts from his songs in other songs, like in Insomniacs Of The World, Goodnight and this one. And like... all of World Container. If I ask you a questionnnn are you gonna lie to meeee?
