Take me back in the day when loving was pure
Love ain't going away, love is always secure
Life's not always perfect, but love's always forever
Let's let true love connect; let's try lasting forever

I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all
I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden

Be the man of my dreams and get down on one knee, love
Say you'll be all I need, and then ask me to marry you, my love
Let's take two golden bands, and let's walk down the isle, love
I'll say I do, and you'll say I do; make a golden commitment, oh

I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all, love
And I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be, yes, I will
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden

Let's last forever (let's last forever)
No typical American shady love
Let's stay together (let's stay together)
Pray God smile upon ours

I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my all, yes, I am
I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be, yes, I will
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden

I'm so ready to love; I'm so ready to promise my whole all, yeah, yeah
And I'm so ready to give till the day that my life is no more
And I'll be everything that this woman could possibly be
'Cause I'm ready to be like the olden days when commitment was golden

Golden, golden
Oh, oh, my
Golden, golden love
'Cause commitment is golden
Mmm, mmm

    To me, this song is very simple, and very lovely. I think she's saying that nowadays, when it seems relationships are crashing and burning around her, she is ready to fall in love and STAY in love. In a way, this song is reminiscent of a little girl's dreams. She's asking for the "man of her dreams" and imagining the way he will propose to her. I think it's sweet, because the idea of finding a storybook love is very enticing....

This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

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/

Magical
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
