Soul

Songs: Ohia

I tell all your friends that
You're bound for glory
And how long did you know
That you'd make it there before me
And what is it like
Is it worth this misfortune
What is it like on the other side
These 20 years I've loved one thing only

I love what I know about passion
I love what I know about mercy
I love what I know about patience
I love what I know about soul

And I know you
And I know you
And I know you

I tell all my friends
That I'm bound for heaven
And if I ain't so
You can't blame me for living
I know what it's like
And it's worth this misfortune
I know what it's like on the other side
These 20 years I've loved one thing only

I love what I know about passion
I love what I know about mercy
I love what I know about patience
I love what I know about soul

And I know you
And I know you
And I know you

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
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.

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/

He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
