There's more to this than meets the eye.
You were the back seat driver, everyone knows that, around here.
And we have fallen, and we're reprised,
So many times I know, but you were in my life.

I still reside where you remain, (no I cannot)
I've made the same mistakes again, (yet fall behind)
I won't escape missed misery, (cause you're with my heart)
The death inside of you and me. (in one last dance)
I still remember everything you said, (no I cannot)
And I'm still listening, (yet fall behind)
And if you want, or need to know; (cause you're with my heart)
You'll always be my heart and soul.

In parallel worlds we align.
I hope you're not alone, I hope you're doing fine, and happy.
And if all I have to learn, is how to be sure I'll let go,
You can be my guide.

I still reside where you remain, (no I cannot)
I've made the same mistakes again, (yet fall behind)
I won't escape missed misery, (cause you're with my heart)
The death inside of you and me. (in one last dance)
I still remember everything you said, (no I cannot)
And I'm still listening, (yet fall behind)
And if you want, or need to know; (cause you're with my heart)
You'll always be my heart and soul.

I still reside where you remain, (no I cannot)
I've made the same mistakes again, (yet fall behind)
I won't escape missed misery, (cause you're with my heart)
The death inside of you and me. (in one last dance)
I still remember everything you said, (no I cannot)
And I'm still listening, (yet fall behind)
And if you want, or need to know; (cause you're with my heart)
You'll always be my heart and soul.

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
