Give me Laugh everyone feels
Give me Pain if time should end
Give me High this dream that's
Give me nothing full of contradictions will...
Give me Laugh an insincere smile
Give me Pain for every lie told
Give me High love has lost
Give me nothing a place to go...

your unreachable love my unreachable love
even now, look at it...
your unreachable voice and my unreachable voice
even now, look at it... but.....

Give me Laugh with every time we've embraced
Give me Pain can I love you?
Give me High I who am
Give me nothing full of contradictions...

time will end time will change me, you, now, will be branded into the flow of time
time will stop at the end of time we'll kiss and then sleep in this love without warmth

An end begins a trivial matter.
It's a time to burn everything.
If I could forget you without hesitation...

Serious injury laughs at me.
The time is changing, the passage of time
burns me, you, now.

Solitude laughs as it likes.
You laugh as you look down.
The time is over, the time will stop, at the end of
the time, sleeping with a kiss to unheated death.

your unreachable love my unreachable love
even now, look at it...
your unreachable voice and my unreachable voice
even now, look at it...
the dream withers and returns to the sand will the dream bloom again someday
inside of me?
I can't recall the dream that left me will your voice reach
to my very core? but.....

time will end time will change me, you, now, will be branded into the flow of time
time will stop at the end of time we'll kiss and then sleep in this love without warmth

Give Me nothing if time should end

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
