Tight rope walking ain't that hard
After slamming back a few you're laughing now
But it ain't that funny when they get through with you
You see me wishing I were you but it hurts too much to try
I failed before so now why bother
Hurts so much I think I'll cry

If I never knew you I'd never love you
If I never loved you then I wouldn't cry
If I never knew you I'd never love you
If loving meant living I wouldn't die

Standing closer ain't that bad
With your hands upon your face you looked too far
I looked much farther and lost all sense of trace
You see me wishing I were you but I'll never be the same
Never had such a sense of wonder
Never knew they had a brain

If I never knew you I'd never love you
If I never loved you then I wouldn't cry
If I never knew you I'd never love you
If loving meant living I wouldn't die

I can't hear myself scream and I can't hear myself dream

Nobody's falling
Nobody's falling
Nobody
Run
Just hit the floor
Nobody's falling
Nobody's falling
Nobody
Still I'd catch you

If I never knew you I'd never love you
If I never loved you then I wouldn't cry

Nobody's falling
Nobody's falling
Nobody
Run
Just hit the floor
Nobody's falling
Nobody's falling
Nobody
Still I'd catch 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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
