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 was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling , I was lost in your love
There's been a diff'rence of opinion to the way I've been treating you
But you know that I've tried to apologize,
for all the bad times I've put you through
On the chance that I could make you mine
There's not a thing I would not do
And wrong or right I'll be with you and lost in your love
I was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling , I was lost in your love
Now I will follow you where the wild bird flies
Through endless skies I will go
So I can be so near you girl and all of this you gotta know
That when I get you here inside my arms
I never ever ever will let you go
And wrong or right I'll be with you and lost in your love
I was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling I was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling , I was lost in your love
There's been a diff'rence of opinion to the way I've been treating you
But you know that I've tried to apologize,
for all the bad times I've put you through
On the chance that I could make you mine
There's not a thing I would not do
And wrong or right I'll be with you and lost in your love
I was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling , I was lost in your love
Now I will follow you where the wild bird flies
Through endless skies I will go
So I can be so near you girl and all of this you gotta know
That when I get you here inside my arms
I never ever ever will let you go
And wrong or right I'll be with you and lost in your love
I was lost in your love
I was held by your heart
And no secrets stood between us anymore
I'm like a child learning pain
I was held by your chains
And my darling I was lost in your love

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/
