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”
Yeah
Just like the old times
I know a lot of you all out there can relate to the old times
So this one is for you

If I take you back in the room
Spend you around
My Baby
Take off your clothes and all of mine too

Lay down
We can be discrete nobody has to know
We don't need no sheets we can just close the door my baby
I can take you places you ain't been before
Soon as we get there baby
You'll be coming back for more, 'Cause
If ain't good enough baby
I'll work harder
I'll keep pumpin every minute girl
And baby I'll do you up, do you up baby
And I will not stop till I know your heart
If I touch your body to mine
Will you touch mine?
Will you touch me baby? Right here
Kiss both your lips and rubbin' those thighs
Taste your wine
Let me taste you baby, ahh
I can do it soft or I can do it hard
I can make you scream if you let down your guard my baby
It's not too far from here to ecstacy
I know you want good lovin
So lay your body next to me
If ain't good enough, good enough baby
I'll work harder
Pumping every minute girl
And baby I'll do you up, do you up baby
And I will not start till I know your heart
If ain't good enough, good enough baby

Pumpin every minute girl
And baby I'll do you up, do you up baby
And I will not stop till I know your heart
So moving your angel body
Feels like you caught me in a night
And when the love gets rolling
Start coming without stop
Filled to the brim
I'm gonna trip down to the very last drop
And if ain't good enough for you baby
I'll do it all for you
And I will not stop till I know your heart
If ain't good enough, good enough baby

And I will not start till I know your heart
If ain't good enough then I'll work harder
Turn it up I'll please you darlin'
Do it up, do it up just for you
And baby I'll taste the wine and give you pleasure
Close the door I'll do whatever
Till I know your heart

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/
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.
No comments?!
This song is fantastic, a classic.
It's a slightly raunchy song (of course, it's BB), but it's sweet, sexy and sensual as well. Obviously, the singer wants to get to know his lady inside and out. I love it!
