Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Invite your sister
Into the garden
All cannot play
Fistful of wildflowers
Handpicked by someone
Who nearly fell
(Ah ah ah ah ah, ah)
(Ah ah ah ah ah ah)
Friend, foe, or feather
If we row to get there
Give my gift to you
In all kinds of weather
If not now, not ever
Please do not go
Hands over your eyes
In all of your sighs
Is it the right time
For the game we play
In all kinds of weather
If not now, not ever
This is the right time
For a holiday
(La, la, la, la)

(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
You came to me in my dreams
And you spoke of everything
Of sweet remedies and diamond rings
Holy words dig early beds
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)
(La, la, la, la)

Give my gift to you
In all kinds of weather
If not now, not ever

In all kinds of weather

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Just A Little Lovin'

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.

I really am 90% sure it's "Holy words dig early graves"
