In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I can't stop killing the songs you like
You look at me with eyes
That could beat the sunrise in a contest
No question
Well, talk to all the others
And bring me back to earth
I'm thankful for your mother for what it's worth
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Here where the future meets the past
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
I can't stop moving cause I'll feel dead
Give me a second and I'll turn into a year you won't forget
We'll make read our stories
And we'll make them eat their words
We'll make their lives seem boring for what it's worth
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Here where the future meets the past
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
I'll drink your poison and say
I'm still not going away
I'll swallow all your bombs and grenades
And love you like a tsunami wave
Wave, wave
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Oh, all the memories
Framed in our minds
Take a second, take a second
And make this last, here for a while
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
Oh, all the memories
Framed in our minds
Take a second, take a second
And make this last, here for a while
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
Again
You look at me with eyes
That could beat the sunrise in a contest
No question
Well, talk to all the others
And bring me back to earth
I'm thankful for your mother for what it's worth
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Here where the future meets the past
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
I can't stop moving cause I'll feel dead
Give me a second and I'll turn into a year you won't forget
We'll make read our stories
And we'll make them eat their words
We'll make their lives seem boring for what it's worth
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Here where the future meets the past
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
I'll drink your poison and say
I'm still not going away
I'll swallow all your bombs and grenades
And love you like a tsunami wave
Wave, wave
Oh, all the memories we had
Framed in our minds like photographs
Take a second, take a second
And make this last
Oh, all the memories
Framed in our minds
Take a second, take a second
And make this last, here for a while
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
Oh, all the memories
Framed in our minds
Take a second, take a second
And make this last, here for a while
I can never fall in love again
I can never fall in love again
Again

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/

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.
This one i really don't think has anything to do with jesus. I think it's about missing someone, maybe an ex or old friends and the like.
reminds me of my friends.
