This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I will rise from the dust of my past.
I will run to You, whose arms are open.
The tears well up within me,
to You alone I cry.
With this life I've been so foolish.
I have tried and I've fallen to shame.
I'm so far off I can't even see the end.
The tears well up within me,
to You alone I cry.
We're losing this battle, we've forgotten why we're here.
Growing tired of running the wrong way.
When it's dark and I'm tired (and I'm lost, help me!)
We will answer in time and all I ask of you...
(For when it is felt the most, to You alone I run.)
We will answer in time and all I ask of You,
is save me from this and I will follow after You.
The time for wallowing and self deceit is past.
It's time to remember the heights we once knew.
When we both arrive, I pray you know what it means to be alive.
We will answer in time and all I ask of You,
is save me from this and I will follow after You.
I will run to You, whose arms are open.
The tears well up within me,
to You alone I cry.
With this life I've been so foolish.
I have tried and I've fallen to shame.
I'm so far off I can't even see the end.
The tears well up within me,
to You alone I cry.
We're losing this battle, we've forgotten why we're here.
Growing tired of running the wrong way.
When it's dark and I'm tired (and I'm lost, help me!)
We will answer in time and all I ask of you...
(For when it is felt the most, to You alone I run.)
We will answer in time and all I ask of You,
is save me from this and I will follow after You.
The time for wallowing and self deceit is past.
It's time to remember the heights we once knew.
When we both arrive, I pray you know what it means to be alive.
We will answer in time and all I ask of You,
is save me from this and I will follow after You.

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/

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.
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.
