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”
And I know we were both too young way back when we had our thing
And you're not the one that I think every time that the telephone rings
And I know that what we had would not be called love by the ones who know
And I know it's been many years and hundred love affairs a go
I know all that so well but I also do know this
Calleth you cometh I
And that's just how it is
And how it is always been
It's were my reason stops
And something else comes in
I know it doesn't make sense
But still
Calleth you cometh I
And that's how it is!!!
And I know we became restrained every time we were among friends
And I know how it was last time and how bitterly it always ends
And I know we were both too young to know what real love would be like
And I know our communication didn't always work out right.
I know all that so well but I also do know this
Calleth you cometh I
And that's just how it is
And how it's always been
It's were my reason stops
And something else came in
I know it doesn't make sense
But still
Calleth you cometh I
And I've been waiting for this so long,waiting to sing this song
For, you
And you're not the one that I think every time that the telephone rings
And I know that what we had would not be called love by the ones who know
And I know it's been many years and hundred love affairs a go
I know all that so well but I also do know this
Calleth you cometh I
And that's just how it is
And how it is always been
It's were my reason stops
And something else comes in
I know it doesn't make sense
But still
Calleth you cometh I
And that's how it is!!!
And I know we became restrained every time we were among friends
And I know how it was last time and how bitterly it always ends
And I know we were both too young to know what real love would be like
And I know our communication didn't always work out right.
I know all that so well but I also do know this
Calleth you cometh I
And that's just how it is
And how it's always been
It's were my reason stops
And something else came in
I know it doesn't make sense
But still
Calleth you cometh I
And I've been waiting for this so long,waiting to sing this song
For, you

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/

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
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.
It is an excellent song. Obvious meaning, but still increadible.
