And in the morning, when I rise,
One question, it feels like the sun in my eyes,
Am I making the most of this life?
So much trouble and so much strife,
And in my guilty hour,
Through all of my shame,
When all my love is run sour,
I have no one else to blame,
Cause it finds me through the mask I wear,
And I see it through it my eyes closed,
But still I can not bare to stare into my worries and my woes,
Theres comfort in self loathing and its easy to slip into it
But still I must learn to lead my life with no regrets,
All the time it all moves in the same direction,
So don't let it pass you by,
Because It moves so fast , theres no time for perfection,
So make the most of this life
Make the most of this life, uh
Make the most of this life
Make the most of this life

And when I fall I fall hard
And I dwell to often in my falls
I must accept it and move on
Theres just no shame in having to crawl

Because it finds me through the mask I wear,
And I see it through it my eyes closed,
But still I can not bare to stare into my worries and my woes,
Theres comfort in self loathing and its easy to slip into it
But still I must learn to lead my life with no regrets,
All the time, it all moves in the same direction,
So don't let it pass you by,
Because It moves so fast , theres no time for perfection,
So make the most of this life oh,
Make the most of this life ,oh
Make the most of this life
Just Make the most of this life

And if you come to me smiling,
Oh I, will see you shining out from within,
Such a beautiful grin aw
Falling down on me and frageling my skin
Wake I am pour I a cup of,
Wake I am pour I a cup
Wake I am pour I a cup of life

    so basically this song explains itself. Live your life to its fullest potential and don't pause and think too long on your mistakes and regrets becasue life is too short for that. Brett Dennen is awesome

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
