History is made, not repeated
and you hide behind words that make you feel needed
and what you read in those books made you so conceited
so in order for love to be true
my dreams will have to
become my only rules

I want a warning
I want a warning
I want something more than a warning
I've been warned about you
I see through all of your promises and warnings

Wake me up on into a world outdated
and the older you get the more you seem jaded
as you search for the quotes to make it seem complicated
so in order for love to be true
even my nightmares
become my only rules

I want a warning
I want a warning
I want something more than a warning
I've been warned about
I see through all of your promises and warnings

I want a warning
I want a warning
I want something more than a warning
I've been warned about you
but I've seen through
every promise is a warning

I want a warning
I want a warning
I want something more than a warning
I've been warned about you
I've seen through
for a promise of a warning

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/

Page

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
