This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I haven't slept at all in days
It's been so long since we've talked
And I have been here many times
I just don't know what I'm doing wrong
What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?
There's only so much I can take
And I just got to let it go
And who knows, I might feel better, yeah
If I don't try and I don't hope
What can I do to make you love me?
What can I do to make you care?
What can I say to make you feel this?
What can I do to get you there?
No more waiting, no more aching
No more fighting, no more trying
Maybe there's nothing more to say
And in a funny way, I'm calm
Because the power is not mine
I'm just going to let it fly
What can I do to make you love me? (What can I do to make you love me?)
What can I do to make you care? (What can I do to make you care?)
What can I say to make you feel this? (What can I do to make you love me?)
What can I do to get you there? (What can I do to make you care?)
What can I do to make you love me? (What can I do to make you love me?)
What can I do to make you care? (What can I do to make you care?)
What can I change to make you feel this? (What can I do to make you love me?)
What can I do to get you there? (What can I do to make you care?)
And love me
Love me, love me (love me, love me)
Love me, love me (love me, love me)
Love me, love me (love me, love me)
Love me, love me (love me, love me)
Love me, love me (love me, love me)

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
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/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
