"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
It's yo birthday, so I know you want to ride out
Even if we only go to my house
Sip mo-eezy as we sit upon my couch
Feels good, but I know you want to cry out
You say u want passion, I think you found it
Get ready for action, don't be astounded
We switching positions, you feel surrounded
Tell me where you want your gift, girl
Girl you know I,I,I, girl you know I,I,I
I been fiending
Wake up in the late night
Been dreaming about your loving, girl
Girl you know I,I,I, girl you know I,I,I
Don't need candles or cake
Just need your body to make you
Birthday sex
Birthday sex oh oh oh oh
(It's the best day of the year girl)
Birthday sex
Birthday sex oh oh oh oh
(If he's, he's, he's, let me hit that g,spot g,spot girl)
See you sexy in them jeans got me on ten
One, two, three think I got you pinned
Don't tap out, fight until the end
Ring that bell, and we gon' start over again
We grinding with passion, 'cause it's your birthday
Been at it for hours, I know you thirsty
You kiss me so sweetly, taste just like Hershey's
Just tell me how you want you gift, girl
Girl you know I,I,I, girl you know I,I,I

Wake up in the late night
Been dreaming about your loving, girl

And make you wanna tell somebody (body) how I do
Or maybe we can float on top my water bed (bed)
You close your eyes as I improv between your legs
We work our way from kitchens, stoves and tables
Girl, you know I'm more than able to please yeah
You say you wanted flowers on the bed (on the bed)
But you got me in hours on the bed
Girl you know I,I,I, girl you know I,I,I

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/
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.
"First I'm gonna take a dive into the water deep Until I know I pleased that body (body)"
What does that line mean specifically?
Its a reference to Sigmund Freud, who theorized that dreams about diving into pools of water indicates a mental desire for sex. <br /> <br /> It could also be referring to her vagina, which is supposedly wet. He indicates his desire to dive in deep during foreplay to sexually arouse her.
yeah exactly. lol "supposedly wet".<br /> <br /> sorrry... that was funny.<br /> <br /> you seemed to nail it though. i thought of cum but whatever.
