My lover, my angel
Each time you laid with me
Falling from your lips
With each kiss
You're betraying me

Don't tell me you made me
You played me for a fool
Lies come tumbling down now
Like a waterfall
Over me

Like a heaven without the stars, yeah
I don't know why you broke my heart

[Chorus]
Just send me to sleep
I just want to dream
Don't want to believe
This is happening to me
Just send me to sleep
For eternity
Yeah
'Cause I don't want to be here alone
No

So silent, so sweetly
You played your game with me
Slowly suffocating
Love was fading

I couldn't breathe
Beloved
Unfaithful
No words are left to speak

Crossed unholy water
You can't alter
Your fate, yeah

Summer kisses fade away, yeah
I'm left standing in the rain

[Chorus: x3]

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/

Blue
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.

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.
