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/
We need new fiction, babe
We need to find our own way
We need new fiction, babe
We need to find our own
Spotlight, electricity in the night
Following your words, soft lines
Heard them a million times, feels like the first
Fiction pump blood, flooding water love
Felt like Gods again
It's easy to pretend that the script was made for us
Make believe in miracles just like in the movies, ay
Gotta find the mood
We need new fiction, babe
We need to find our own way
We need new fiction, babe
We need to find our own way
New trends, lose yourself in mass demands
Smiling, shakin' hands, new friends
Lookin' good on camera when the stars are aligned
Fiction pump blood, flooding water love
We felt like Gods again
It's easy to pretend that the script was made for us
Make believe in miracles just like in the movies, ay
Gotta find a new, new
We need new fiction, babe (we need new fiction, babe)
We need to find our own way (gotta find a home)
We need new fiction, babe (we need new fiction, babe)
We need to find our own way (gotta find a home)

We need to find our own way (gotta find a home, gotta find a home)
We need new fiction, babe
We need to find our own way
We need new fiction, babe, ooh
we need to find our own way
We need new fiction, babe (we need new fiction, babe)
We need to find our own (gotta find a home)
We need new fiction, babe (we need new fiction, babe)

Gotta find, gotta find, gotta find something new
Find a home, find a home, find a love in you
We need to find our own way

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.
Seems well thought out but I can't get a grip on what it means. Anyone have any ideas?
'Sworn too fast with all my might<br /> The clay was soft, the future bright<br /> Old fashioned ways that won't erase<br /> Out of control, this building gate'<br /> <br /> I feel this quite strongly, as 'falling too fast' for someone. Feeling the brightness of the moment, so ready to be moulded by another. I have fallen too quickly in the past always, a bad habit.. without self-control checking me each time as I run through the check-in gates ;)<br /> <br /> then comes the strange feeling you never actually knew this person, you just fell in love with the 'Idea' of them..<br /> <br /> And then comes the the dislocation, turmoil.. inviting the ruckus so to speak, openly. From the first option, I rushed in.. I wasn't careful. The one who has the least to lose, holds most the power..<br /> <br /> but still, <br /> <br /> not so detached<br /> <br /> I saw you peeking through the door.
i think its about meeting someone new and you start to fall for them. but your not sure what they are all about, but your so in "awww" that you take a risk and start something new instead of the same old thing.
