This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Right away, great captain
I'll go where you need me
The banks of the north shore
Or the hills I'll go fleeting.
Just give me a minute to tell my wife good bye,
I loved her so dearly but its time to take real flight.
On a dark desert road
Or a middle sized fake show you lead me to.
(Its so dark in there)
Well, right away, great captain
I'll surely leave everything
God bless I love you
But God you mean more to me
Than any three hole punched fake scripture could come from me
Just know that I love you
But love's such a simile.
For pearl gates of gold
I will do my best to meet you there half way
Or the whole way.
On a high way you know
Where the ending will take place so beautifully
So beautifully
So beautifully
Right away, great captain
I'll go where you want me to.
Don't make it much harder
Than what I have gone through
If you've got your systems I'll tear down these walls
You haven't seen devils 'til you've seen them all.
You've gotta be strong
Or I'll take it back, if you want me to.
On a highway you know
I will do my best to meet you there.
So please don't leave me,
Please don't leave me,
Please don't leave me.
I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
But darling I am leaving.
I'll go where you need me
The banks of the north shore
Or the hills I'll go fleeting.
Just give me a minute to tell my wife good bye,
I loved her so dearly but its time to take real flight.
On a dark desert road
Or a middle sized fake show you lead me to.
(Its so dark in there)
Well, right away, great captain
I'll surely leave everything
God bless I love you
But God you mean more to me
Than any three hole punched fake scripture could come from me
Just know that I love you
But love's such a simile.
For pearl gates of gold
I will do my best to meet you there half way
Or the whole way.
On a high way you know
Where the ending will take place so beautifully
So beautifully
So beautifully
Right away, great captain
I'll go where you want me to.
Don't make it much harder
Than what I have gone through
If you've got your systems I'll tear down these walls
You haven't seen devils 'til you've seen them all.
You've gotta be strong
Or I'll take it back, if you want me to.
On a highway you know
I will do my best to meet you there.
So please don't leave me,
Please don't leave me,
Please don't leave me.
I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
And I wish you'd say please don't leave me,
But darling I am leaving.

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/
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
I always saw the captain as a metaphor for his artistic ambitions, his drive to make music and express himself. I'm not sure if the whole album fits this interpretation, but I think this song fits pretty well. He's trying to balance his desire for happiness and companionship with his desire to be a great artist, which requires him to be lonely and to explore his unhappiness.
