Woman

Maroon 5

If I'd be so inclined to climb up beside you
Would you tell me
That the time just isn't right
And if i ever find the key you hide so well
Will you tell me
That I can spend the night

Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah ow wow

If I could bottle up the chills that you give me
I would keep them
In a jar next to my bed
And if i should ever draw a picture of a woman
It is you
That would come flowing through my pen

Leaving your clothes on the floor
Making me walk out the door
And i still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Ow

Helplessly melting
As i stand next to the sun
As you burn me
I am screaming out for more
Drink every drop of liquid
In the heat that I've become
Pop me open
Spoon me out onto the floor

Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
Fail to understand

Leaving your smell on my coat
Leaving your taste on my shoulder
I still fail to understand
What it is about this woman
Yeah

    I'm pretty sure they rerecorded it... I remember hearing it a while back and it sounds a bit different now.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
