Softly and tenderly Jesus is callin'
Callin' for you and for me
Patient and loving He's waitin' and watchin'
Watchin' for you and for me
Well come home, well come home, home
Ye who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is calling
Well oh sinner, sinner, come on home
Earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is callin'
Callin' for you and for me
Patient and loving 'cos He's waitin' and watchin'
Watchin' for you and for me
Well I say come home, well come home
Well ye who are weary please come home, come home
Well, earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is callin'
Callin' oh sinner, come home
Callin' for you and for me
Patient and loving He's waitin' and watchin'
Watchin' for you and for me
Well come home, well come home, home
Ye who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is calling
Well oh sinner, sinner, come on home
Earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is callin'
Callin' for you and for me
Patient and loving 'cos He's waitin' and watchin'
Watchin' for you and for me
Well I say come home, well come home
Well ye who are weary please come home, come home
Well, earnestly, tenderly, my Jesus is callin'
Callin' oh sinner, come home

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/

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.
