You only live twice
Oh, so it seems
One life for yourself
And one for your dreams

You drift through the years
And life seems stray
Till one dream appears
And love is its way

I'd love you to strangers
Ooh, beckon you on
Don't think of the danger
For a stranger is gone

This dream is for you
So pay the price
Make one dream come true
You only live twice

This dream is for you
So pay the price
Make one dream come true
You only live twice
You only live twice

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/

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.
