I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge that I done wrong

Father kind and patient
As kind as he could be
He gave to me my fortune
That he has promised me
Father told his sermon
Bring the valley cats down
Pass it down to my gone child
He best come back home

Well I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge that I done wrong

I'll go back to my Father's
Fall down on my knees
Gotta do better than I do
Recognize me if you please
My father saw him a coming
The men in there, then he cried
Gonna bring home again now
This is my darling child

I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge that I done wrong

Father kind and patient
As kind as he could be
He gave to me my fortune
That he has promised me

I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home,
I believe I'll go back home
Acknowledge that I done wrong

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
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.

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.
