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.
wow this is sweet
and its saturday night
j and c all alone
chilling no delight
we sitting by ourselves
with nothing better to do
so we figured
we would write a song for you
so fucking bored
where are all our bitches
im having fun now
because i got anus itches
yes man im glad
that our friends are away
and this night rules
i sarcastically say
we called some of yall
on your phone went ring ring
but it appears certain
that your not answering
we have left messages
on your tele cellies
where all the chicks
melly nelly and kelly
its raining outside
and joshs hoop still isnt it up
but nothings going on
man nothing is up
we got some homies
but they arent anywhere to be found
the next time i see one of you
your face will hit the ground
its akle all you jerkies
the acers are better than you
i will leave you all
and find a sweet new crew
i wont forget this evening
and i wont forget this day
we are leaving now
because here i wont stay
yeah you jerk fuckers
we are going some where
we found new frineds already
and they actually care
about our coolasses
and how neat we are
and they live close
unlike you, very far.
the weather outside
wasnt exactly sweet
so we hopped on our cruisers
rather than our feet
we went to this house
or should i say apartment
it was a clean place
she was keeping up on the rent
it was better than sitting
in my room by ourselves
someone tickled molly
and she bumped into the shelves
yep all you monkeys
this is in your face
because we actually had a good time
in a new adventuresome place
so we will list the names
of the people that might
not have been there
on this gay to cool night
the coyotes

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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
i can relate to this because you know occasionally you sit at home on nights you could be doing stuff and none of your friends are there to hang with you so wassup wassup
