It's so soft, to see the glow from the city up ahead
connect my hert to the rhythm it's lead
straight forward and ready 'cause I'm on my way home
it's so good, to be alive in such a hazardous world
to be alive and see the victory unfurled
I'm anxious and waiting 'cause I'm on my way home

yeah, your war is won (3x)
oh my friend you're finally done.

on that day, you'll find ambitions don't lie here anymore
the one you love has gone and settled the score
what more could you ask for now
it's so good, to be alive in such a wonderful year
to be alive and see the end of your fear
with peace in your ear 'cause you're on your way home

yeah, your war is won (3x)
oh my friend you're finally done.

and all this time
we walk the line through pain
and giving in to you
but now its gone
so we'll move on and know
that this is not the end

on that simple night, when we've all lost our sight, you believevd in what i said
from those cursed beginnings to those blessed blessed ends
in between we've found our way to live


yeah, your war is won (3x)
oh my friend you're finally done. (2x)

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”

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.
