This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Let me just take you somewhere secret
Gonna cut out of the lights down dim, forget all
About your world, we gonna just flow with what we feel, let's share all
Few private thoughts, I'm not just out for your sex
Let me simplify the things and life that
You find complex, forget what you heard 'bout me 'cause you're a
Scarecrow groupie but there's no pressure on you 'cause you know
What you must do, check this out
Let's have a drink and I give you time to think
Let me puff this Buddha blunt and cut on this porno bump, girl, come lounge
Here by my side tonight you're my devils bride and there's a
Freak deep inside, have no shame, no need to hide
Why do you keep on blushing? Get it all
Like a slut, she-she must be
Kind of tipsy on this Chrystal like a gypsy
Now I got her on all fours, 'bout to break
Down the headboard, crash this broad
On through the wall, now she howlin' like a dog, sweat poured
We hit the floor, it don't quit
Another one ripped, it's just another victim of Lord Infamous late night tip
I'm not the type to get involved in long relationships (why?)
Takin' trips and buyin' gifts, I'm sorry I'm not on that tip (what?)
If you want romance you should just stick who you already with (okay)
If you in that mood, you can just hit me on that late night tip (oh)
I'm not the type to get involved in long relationships (why?)
Takin' trips and buyin' gifts, I'm sorry I'm not on that tip (what?)
If you want romance you should just stick who you already with (okay)
If you in that mood, you can just hit me on that late night tip (oh)
I done seen some funny shh since I got in this game
They wants my crib, they wants my kid since I done gots my fame
I never recall you askin' last boyfriend for Nathan
But now the big 'Burban on golds got ya aggravated
(I need a Coach bag) I can't be even doin' it
(I need my hair done) me too, I ain't got nothin' to do with it
I've been through with it, you and the since the first time you asked
And might I add, playas like me can't be savin' your ass
I ain't with that nonsense, all that lovey dovey mess
Feelin' kind of horny and when I'm callin' all I want is sex
Slip on Victoria Secret's hit the liquor store before it close
Call Chris so I can't get somethin' white to go get up my nose
Now I'm feelin' fine, nothin' but sex is on my mind
If you cannot please me boy, then please don't waste all of my time
Got you caught up in the mix, mystic girl from Triple Six
Late night tip is all we have, you just came, so trick, that's it
I'm not the type to get involved in long relationships (why?)
Takin' trips and buyin' gifts, I'm sorry I'm not on that tip (what?)
If you want romance you should just stick who you already with (okay)
If you in that mood, you can just hit me on that late night tip (oh)
I'm not the type to get involved in long relationships (why?)
Takin' trips and buyin' gifts, I'm sorry I'm not on that tip (what?)
If you want romance you should just stick who you already with (okay)
If you in that mood, you can just hit me on that late night tip (oh)
I can't understand why these broads be trippin'
Can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen
Ballin' in my Lex' dropped low to the ground
Just a young playa tryin' put my bid in
Freaks want to trick that be constantly payin'
Not a ghetto thug they be constantly layin'
Rainbow Inn or the Summer Motel
Oh well, that's where the juice man stayin'
Gotta have a lady that want to do what I do
Likes skippin' work or love cuttin' high school
Servin' other playas in the Three 6 Mafia
Camcorder on, skinny dippin' in the swimmin' pool
Never try to argue, bother you or fight
Keep a pack of jimmy hats strapped on real tight
Fifth of Alize, or a tall can of Bud Light
Just for your freaks on a mood like tonight
Tell me Three 6 who's that bumpin' that music?
Hypnotizin' Koop, I tell you who, I'm 'bout to lose it
Could it be that late night crew tight just inside the party
Always kind of lonely, someone want me, hold me, I say
Come here, come here, come here the Koopsta cryin' tears
I can't think positive when no one cares of how I feel
Realize my mind so tired that I even tried to find
I cannot lie though I can ride hide late night
Gonna cut out of the lights down dim, forget all
About your world, we gonna just flow with what we feel, let's share all
Few private thoughts, I'm not just out for your sex
Let me simplify the things and life that
You find complex, forget what you heard 'bout me 'cause you're a

Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Just A Little Lovin'

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

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.
