This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
One time, to know that it's real
One time, to know how it feels
That's all
One call, your voice on the phone
One place, a moment alone
That's all
What do you see?
What do you know?
One sign, what'll I do?
Just follow your lifeline through
What if it hurts, what then?
What do we do, what do you say?
Don't throw your lifeline away
Don't throw your lifeline away
One time, just once in my life
Yeah one time, to know it can't happen twice
One shot on a clear blue sky
One look, I see the reasons why you cared
One chance to get back to the point where everything starts
One chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
One sign to make us believe it's true
What do you see, where do we go?
One sign, how do we grow?
By letting your lifeline show
What if we do, what now?
What do you say, how do I know?
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go
One time, to know how it feels
That's all
One call, your voice on the phone
One place, a moment alone
That's all
What do you see?
What do you know?
One sign, what'll I do?
Just follow your lifeline through
What if it hurts, what then?
What do we do, what do you say?
Don't throw your lifeline away
Don't throw your lifeline away
One time, just once in my life
Yeah one time, to know it can't happen twice
One shot on a clear blue sky
One look, I see the reasons why you cared
One chance to get back to the point where everything starts
One chance to keep it together
Things fall apart
One sign to make us believe it's true
What do you see, where do we go?
One sign, how do we grow?
By letting your lifeline show
What if we do, what now?
What do you say, how do I know?
Don't let your lifeline go
Don't let your lifeline go

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/
