This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
The leaves they fall
Upon the day that makes a memory
Those pleading eyes,
Echoing, silently in me
The final night
I guard her sleep, I can do without
The fear's down deep
There's nothing good in this morning
Oh, and I know
Invested feelings in the one I would outlast
My little friend is getting tired, fading fast
Did not want to see the signs of the dimming flame
I need to have more time
Tonight I fear I'll say goodbye to my little friend
Don't want to let you go
The warmest heart I've found
I lower into the ground
My tears, forever with you
Resting under your tree
You have always loved this place
It now belongs to you
I need to set you free
And go on alone
One day in my feeble time line
You gave me your heart and stole mine
Tomorrows came too fast for me
To hear your slow, silent goodbye
The kindest heart I've found
I lowered into the ground
Your smile kept me alive
Back when the skies were still
You always liked this place
Now sleep under the tree
I planted here the day
When you were born
I should have been ready, seen the nearing end
My little old friend, a child.
That day I had to say goodbye and turn the bend
But I'll never let go
Upon the day that makes a memory
Those pleading eyes,
Echoing, silently in me
The final night
I guard her sleep, I can do without
The fear's down deep
There's nothing good in this morning
Oh, and I know
Invested feelings in the one I would outlast
My little friend is getting tired, fading fast
Did not want to see the signs of the dimming flame
I need to have more time
Tonight I fear I'll say goodbye to my little friend
Don't want to let you go
The warmest heart I've found
I lower into the ground
My tears, forever with you
Resting under your tree
You have always loved this place
It now belongs to you
I need to set you free
And go on alone
One day in my feeble time line
You gave me your heart and stole mine
Tomorrows came too fast for me
To hear your slow, silent goodbye
The kindest heart I've found
I lowered into the ground
Your smile kept me alive
Back when the skies were still
You always liked this place
Now sleep under the tree
I planted here the day
When you were born
I should have been ready, seen the nearing end
My little old friend, a child.
That day I had to say goodbye and turn the bend
But I'll never let go

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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
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.
This song applies to how I feel right now... My bunny that I got for my 10th birthday (I'm now nearing the age of 19 in October, she will be 9 in August if she makes it) has very deteriorating health and she may not have long... This song makes me so sad...
