This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I should have nailed you down
Now you're on that cloud
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
There you go again
On that horse of yours
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
You should have stood me up
Now I'm draggin' you down
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
I've lost my head
Prefer foolishness instead
My words just rise
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind
What are you tryin' to prove?
What are you tryin' to prove?
Who are you tryin' to prove it to? (x5)
Now you're on that cloud
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
There you go again
On that horse of yours
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
You should have stood me up
Now I'm draggin' you down
If we're gonna do this
We gotta do it now
While we're young
I've lost my head
Prefer foolishness instead
My words just rise
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind
Leaving all good sense behind
What are you tryin' to prove?
What are you tryin' to prove?
Who are you tryin' to prove it to? (x5)

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”
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/
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
I'm hearing the first line as:
"I should have NAILED YOU DOWN"
It makes more sense too.
