This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Where are the dreams that we once had?
This is the time to bring them back.
What were the promises caught
On the tips of our tongues?
Do we forget or forgive?
There's a whole other life waiting to be lived when
One day we're brave enough
To talk with conviction of the heart.
And down your streets I've walked alone,
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose,
Doors I have opened and closed
I'm so tired of living this life,
Fooling myself, believing we're right when
I've never given love
With any conviction of the heart.
One with the Earth, with the sky
I believe we'll survive
If we only try
How long must we wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in
To know what it is to forgive,
And to be forgiven?
It's been too many years of talking now.
Isn't it time to stop somehow?
Air that's too angry to breathe
Water our children can't drink
You've heard it hundreds of times
You say you're aware, believe and you care, but
Do you care enough
To talk with conviction of the heart?
This is the time to bring them back.
What were the promises caught
On the tips of our tongues?
Do we forget or forgive?
There's a whole other life waiting to be lived when
One day we're brave enough
To talk with conviction of the heart.
And down your streets I've walked alone,
As if my feet were not my own
Such is the path I chose,
Doors I have opened and closed
I'm so tired of living this life,
Fooling myself, believing we're right when
I've never given love
With any conviction of the heart.
One with the Earth, with the sky
I believe we'll survive
If we only try
How long must we wait to change
This world bound in chains that we live in
To know what it is to forgive,
And to be forgiven?
It's been too many years of talking now.
Isn't it time to stop somehow?
Air that's too angry to breathe
Water our children can't drink
You've heard it hundreds of times
You say you're aware, believe and you care, but
Do you care enough
To talk with conviction of the heart?

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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
this song is truly amazing. my parents are huge kenny loggins fans and i grew up listening to him. this album came out when i was about six. the last three lines really get me...a wonderful piece by a very talented man.
I remember my dad listening to this a lot back in the day when my parents were divorcing. I always think of that when I hear this and "the real thing"
this is my favorite of his it's on my mix CD "Songs of Conviction and Hope" which i think describes it perfectly...so many songs that make a statement forget to include the hope that things can be better
This song is about taken care of the earth before its to late. It was dedicated on Earth day Kenny was given an award by former vice president Al gore for this song played during the Earth day celebration in Washington DC
