Tough, you think you got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

you don't have to put up a fight
You don't always have to be right
Let me take some of the punches for you tonight

listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

we fight all the time
You and i... that's alright
We are the same soul

listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

and it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

oohh,ooooooh yeah
And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes... sometimes you can't make it on your own


Sometimes you can't make it on your own!!!!

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/

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.
