Just the mentioning of, such a simple phrase
Are we passengers on separated trains?
Take the mask off, when you speak to me
And I'm alright to go on, it's the little things

But anymore, you've become
Ethereal to everyone
To everyone

I'm reeling in the long day getting behind it
Why didn't I think "What in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it
Three to just get in the way (ooh)

All your life to think of, what a mess you made
Dig a hole in the ground, for your wedding ring
Rainmaker call, throw your hammer down
And everything that I know, can't remember now

Anymore, you've become
Inherent of another one
Another one

I'm reeling in the long days, getting behind
Why didn't I think "What in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it
Three to just get in the way

I'm reeling in the long days, getting behind
Why didn't I think "What in the world?"
It really took a tall one to see it
Two to believe it
Three to just get in the way (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

    @poet............. [One would need to be rather keen to anticipate this betrayal or end of this relationship, and either one couldn't trust one's own senses and needed a second opinion or the two of them needed to agree that it was over before he could accept it, and a third party somehow was involved to botch things, either a lover or a divorce attorney]

    Like that staged conversation was not obvious!!!!! What a piece of shit!!!!!!!! Betrayal

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/

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.
