This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Yo soy caliente, yo soy lava
Yo soy hormiga brava
Tú te babeas conmigo
Hay que quitarse la paga
Llegó el hombre que to' el mundo detesta
Yo soy el que los alimenta, con mal aliento
El que a deja'o a to' los viejo boquiabierto'
Con el estómago revuelto
Una masa repleta de talento
Flow lento
Como tortuga Kawabonga
Uste' ponga las konga
Pa' que yo componga música pa' ti, mamisonga
Contigo me gua a dar una jaltera
Quiero comerme la ensalada entera
Deja las penas, no te arranques las venas
Que uste se ve bonita con esa diadema
Ese "coliyón" esta que bota flema
Se empató el juego en la novena
Uste' es la reina de la berbena
Uste' me llena, tamaño ballena
Yo soy caliente, yo soy lava
Yo soy hormiga brava
Tú te babeas conmigo
Hay que quitarse la paga
Soy la nueva cara del rap
El nuevo new kid on the block
Que me sigan en el coro los estúpidos
Residente Calle 13, suena nítido
Que to' el mundo se levante del asiento
Y si los ofendo, pues lo siento
Te vo'a sacar el aire de la cabeza
Dándole un masaje a tu cerebro con cerveza
Pa' cambiarle esa mente de fresa
Hay que consumir como cien tableta'
Yo no meto feca
Yo lo que tengo es una biblioteca
De cosas sexy y de cosas frescas
Y cada vez que abro la boca, apesta
Chúpate esta
Un masajito por tu piel grasienta
Pa' que se sienta hasta en la placenta
Pica-pica-pica-pica como pimienta
Nos fuimos hippie como en los 70
A ti yo te cedo la silla y la mesa
La trato de su alteza
Eres una gata montesa
De las pezuñas hasta la cabeza
Estoy bien pará
Tú no sabe, no sabe na'
Tú no sabe, no sabe na'
Esta nena, la sirena
Esta nena, la sirena
La sirena de agua dulce
La nazarena
Mira como flota, mi cabeza
Por ver como revotan
Tus nalgota, grandota y negrota
Vamono' sin capota
Alfombra roja pa' la cocorota
Yo soy caliente, yo soy lava
Yo soy hormiga brava
Tú te babeas conmigo
Hay que quitarse la paga
Yo soy hormiga brava
Tú te babeas conmigo
Hay que quitarse la paga
Llegó el hombre que to' el mundo detesta
Yo soy el que los alimenta, con mal aliento
El que a deja'o a to' los viejo boquiabierto'
Con el estómago revuelto
Una masa repleta de talento
Flow lento
Como tortuga Kawabonga
Uste' ponga las konga
Pa' que yo componga música pa' ti, mamisonga
Contigo me gua a dar una jaltera
Quiero comerme la ensalada entera
Deja las penas, no te arranques las venas
Que uste se ve bonita con esa diadema
Ese "coliyón" esta que bota flema
Se empató el juego en la novena
Uste' es la reina de la berbena
Uste' me llena, tamaño ballena
Yo soy caliente, yo soy lava
Yo soy hormiga brava
Tú te babeas conmigo
Hay que quitarse la paga
Soy la nueva cara del rap
El nuevo new kid on the block

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.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
