This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
you know i wish that i could ride with you
and go all the way back home
but this is where i think i'm getting
the thought of staying up an extra hour is nice
but i must be going somewhere sooner than i thought
so hurry up and find the words you need to summarize
what it's taken 13 years to learn
hurry up and empty everything you've held inside
and prayed you'd never need to say when it comes your turn
i was younger and i guess i needed someone to show me
how to hide and catch them by surprise
how to light a fire, how to put it out
and how do we not know how to tie a knot and keep it tied?
so hurry up and find the words you need to summarize
what it's taken 13 years to learn
hurry up and empty everything you've held inside
and prayed you'd never need to say when it comes your turn
and go all the way back home
but this is where i think i'm getting
the thought of staying up an extra hour is nice
but i must be going somewhere sooner than i thought
so hurry up and find the words you need to summarize
what it's taken 13 years to learn
hurry up and empty everything you've held inside
and prayed you'd never need to say when it comes your turn
i was younger and i guess i needed someone to show me
how to hide and catch them by surprise
how to light a fire, how to put it out
and how do we not know how to tie a knot and keep it tied?
so hurry up and find the words you need to summarize
what it's taken 13 years to learn
hurry up and empty everything you've held inside
and prayed you'd never need to say when it comes your turn

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.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
