And then you said a little more
About your dreams like that was my call (my call)
If you would only listen
Bypass everything and
Went straight for the neck

I study
We're studied
Up nightly
Dragged you out into the streets
Before you buckled at your knees (buckled at your knees)

Whats it feel like to be a ghost?
(Louder now, louder now)
Sp, whats it feel like to be a ghost? (Lou-)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)

This is quick but not quite painless
It sits perched on your arm
Tacky and irrelevant, so what?
A permanent reminder that
Oh Christ

I study
We're studied
Up nightly
Dragged you out into the street
Before you buckled at your knees (buckle)

Whats it feel like to be a ghost?
(Louder now, louder now)
So whats it feel like to be a ghost? (Lou-)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)

I said so look closely there might be something you'd like
What was it like
Oh and I
Look so close its been months who knows if I
Will get this right
Oh and I
Look so closely there might be something you'd like
What was it like
Well, oh and I

So, whats it feel like to be a ghost?
(Louder now, louder now)
Whats it feel like to be a ghost? (Lou-)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)
Are you up for, are you up for this?
(Well are you up for, are you up for)

    My Interpretation

    She got "ghosted" for caring too much about his approval instead of living her life. If only she "listened." So what's it feel like to be a ghost?

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/
