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”
Lock the door and meet me in here
I'm not, I'm not scared
Goodbye, say goodbye
Fear well my one and only
We were meant for this
And we were made for this
We wont mess it up cause we always just fall down
Well never miss another day cause were the ones who writes the songs
And the writers lost his touch he doesnt't care for this at all
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
So kiss me gently
Cause I'll never let it go
I bet you never thought that this was how the song goes
And while your listening, I am really trying
The words I never said will keep your eyes from crying
(the words I never said will keep your eyes from crying)
I wont sit here waiting
Would you stay for me?
I can't wait forever
Will you take that long?
This isn't what I'm waiting for
This isn't what I'm here for
This isn't what I'm waiting for
This isn't what I'm here for
So kiss me gently
I'll never let it go
(repeat)
So kiss me gently
Cause I'll never let it go
I bet you never thought that this was how the song goes
And while your listening, I am really trying
The words I never said will keep your eyes from crying
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be
We fell in love with one another like the movies
And well both realize that we can both be happy
I wont forget you and I hope you wont forget me
(repeat)
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be
I'll never let it go
I'm not, I'm not scared
Goodbye, say goodbye
Fear well my one and only
We were meant for this
And we were made for this
We wont mess it up cause we always just fall down
Well never miss another day cause were the ones who writes the songs
And the writers lost his touch he doesnt't care for this at all
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
I wont stand for this
So kiss me gently
Cause I'll never let it go
I bet you never thought that this was how the song goes
And while your listening, I am really trying
The words I never said will keep your eyes from crying
(the words I never said will keep your eyes from crying)
I wont sit here waiting
Would you stay for me?
I can't wait forever
Will you take that long?
This isn't what I'm waiting for
This isn't what I'm here for
This isn't what I'm waiting for
This isn't what I'm here for
So kiss me gently
I'll never let it go
(repeat)
So kiss me gently
Cause I'll never let it go
I bet you never thought that this was how the song goes
And while your listening, I am really trying
The words I never said will keep your eyes from crying
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be
We fell in love with one another like the movies
And well both realize that we can both be happy
I wont forget you and I hope you wont forget me
(repeat)
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be
I'll never let it go

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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
So every lyric website on the internet has this wrong. If you listen to the song though you can tell where the lyrics say:
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be We fell in love with one another like the movies And well both realize that we can both be happy I wont forget you and I hope you wont forget me
It should say:
This is the way it was, the way it is, it should be We fell apart from one another like the movies So let's just live our lives and we can both be happy I wont forget you and I hope you wont forget me.
I normally wouldn't care except that this changes the entire meaning of the song. He's trying to make the relationship work but its not helping and in that last verse he decides that the relationship won't work so he says basically they will both be happier apart but he is still in love and won't forget her.
