Let me start with a soft caress
Wanna show you I'm not like the rest
So put me to the test
Anything that you feel let it go
Wanna take things nice and slow
So baby lose control
I want this, want that
I want anything, anything

So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you a song
So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you this song
'cause it's all about love tonight
It's all you see
So stay up with me tonight

So come make it right next to me
Let me show you what love can be
I'll kiss the lips softly
I'm lookin' you right in the eyes
Girl I slowly go deep inside
Your heart is what I mean
'Cause I want this, want that
I want anything, anything

So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you a song
So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you this song
'Cause it's all about lovin' tonight
It's all you see
So stay up with me tonight, oh

It's all about you and me
That's right (that's right)
That's right (that's right)
This it what it means to me

So don't leave me (don't leave me)
Don't leave me
I need this just as bad as you do
So don't leave me
Don't leave me
Tonight

(Oh)
So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you a song
So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you this song
'Cause it's all about lovin' tonight
It's all you see
So stay up with me

So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you a song
So let's stay up tonight
Girl that's all
Let me sing you this song
'Cause it's all about lovin' tonight
It's all you see
So stay up with me tonight

Baby baby
It's all you see
So stay up with me all night

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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.

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.
