The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Te regalo una rosa
La encontré en el camino
No sé si está desnuda
O tiene un solo vestido
No, no lo sé
Si la riega el verano
O se embriaga de olvido
Si alguna vez fue amada
O tiene amor escondido
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, pero
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay
Te regalo mis manos
Mis párpados caídos
El beso más profundo
El que se ahoga en un gemido, oh
Te regalo un otoño
Un día entre abril y junio
Un rayo de ilusiones
Un corazón al desnudo
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, vida
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, pero
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay
La encontré en el camino
No sé si está desnuda
O tiene un solo vestido
No, no lo sé
Si la riega el verano
O se embriaga de olvido
Si alguna vez fue amada
O tiene amor escondido
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, pero
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay
Te regalo mis manos
Mis párpados caídos
El beso más profundo
El que se ahoga en un gemido, oh
Te regalo un otoño
Un día entre abril y junio
Un rayo de ilusiones
Un corazón al desnudo
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, vida
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Eres la rosa que me da calor
Eres el sueño de mi soledad
Un letargo de azul
Un eclipse de mar, pero
Ay, ay, ay, ay, amor
Yo soy satélite y tú eres mi sol
Un universo de agua mineral
Un espacio de luz
Que solo llenas tú, ay amor
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
Just A Little Lovin'

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/

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.
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.
I love this song and this artist!!!!
