In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Oh, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa

[Chorus: x4]
Girl, I've been thinkin' bout ya
And I been dreaming bout ya
Hey girl, you're getting hotter
Hotter than the average temperature
Than a man could stand
If you hold my hand
I could be ya man
But I
Didn't know that you'd make this harder
What you trying to say baby running games on me
(but i)
Girl, I will try
(will try)
To give my best to you
(to you)
And do the things
The others wouldn't do
(they wont do)
Cause, your expectations got so high
I could be your guy only if I tried
But I know that I Gotta step my game up yeah yea!
[Chorus]
When you walk two lane on a sunny day
Thinking that you hear me but its not the same
[Chorus]
Every moment pass when you not around
Someone comes up with these drawings
Cause the scent of your clothes
The red blush on your face
Even your swagger makes me wish that I could grab a taste
Don't mean to come on strong, but girl it don't feel wrong
And to be honest, I could see us both together
Cause you don't know
All the hoops I had to go through to get you a second in my life
No you wont go
If I show u the real me sweet and sensitive real me
But I
Girl, I will try
(will try)
To give my best to you
(to you)
And do the things
The others wouldn't do
(they wont do)
Cause your expectations got so high
I could be your guy, only if I tried
But I know that I Gotta step my game up
[Chorus]
When you walk two lane, on a sunny day,
Thinking that you hear me, but its not the same
[Chorus]
Every moment that pass you not around
Someone comes up with these drawings
Cause the scent of your clothes
The red blush on your face
Even your swagger makes me wish that I could grab a taste
Don't mean to come on strong, but girl it dont feel wrong
And to be honest, I could see us both together
Don't be distant, don't be shy
With one try,
Ill have you shaking cooking baking
Oh yes baby,
Girl you'll fly, and like what ill do to you
Girl ill break my back, to cover all your needs
Ass long as you is pleased, it don't matter to me
If I break my back then it was all worth it to me
Cause in the end ill finally be with the woman of my dreams yeah!
[Chorus]
When you walk two lane on a sunny day
Thinking that you hear me but its not the same
[Chorus]
Every moment pass when you not around
Someone comes up with these drawings
Cause the scent of your clothes
The red blush on your face
Even your swagger makes me wish that I could grab a taste
Don't mean to come on strong, but girl it don't feel wrong
And to be honest, I could see us both together

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
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/

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.
