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.
Sé que te hubiera gustado
Que hablara contigo
Sé que te hubiera gustado
Estar sin testigos
Pero esta noche cayeron las horas
En mudo esperar
Llorando el silencio amargo
De tu despertar
Amándole, amándole
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar
Sé que te hubiera gustado
Hablarle al oído
Decirle las cosas que sientes
Si no esta contigo
Pero la noche se escapa en la espera
Y tu no lo ves
Despacio su ausencia te atrapa
Rasgando tu ser
Amándole, amándole
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar
Que hablara contigo
Sé que te hubiera gustado
Estar sin testigos
Pero esta noche cayeron las horas
En mudo esperar
Llorando el silencio amargo
De tu despertar
Amándole, amándole
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar
Sé que te hubiera gustado
Hablarle al oído
Decirle las cosas que sientes
Si no esta contigo
Pero la noche se escapa en la espera
Y tu no lo ves
Despacio su ausencia te atrapa
Rasgando tu ser
Amándole, amándole
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar
Amanece el día
En tu habitación
Mojando recuerdos
La espera se vuelve mas fría
Profanas la almohada
En tus locos deseos de amar

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/
