This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Sat a long time on the side of the road as the freezing rain slowly turns to snow
Don't let me go
Feels a long time, about a week or two
But it doesn't seem to cut the miles between me and you
Me and you
Everything I hear is all the same
Everything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know until you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Better know before I say goodbye
Sat all last night by the telephone
A glass of red wine to numb this heart of gold
It's all alone
Called you last night about 1:02
The middle of your dream's the best that I can do
If you only knew
Everything I hear is all the same
EVerything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know until you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
Everything I hear is all the same
Everything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know ';til you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Never know 'til you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye
Don't let me go
Feels a long time, about a week or two
But it doesn't seem to cut the miles between me and you
Me and you
Everything I hear is all the same
Everything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know until you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Better know before I say goodbye
Sat all last night by the telephone
A glass of red wine to numb this heart of gold
It's all alone
Called you last night about 1:02
The middle of your dream's the best that I can do
If you only knew
Everything I hear is all the same
EVerything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know until you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
Everything I hear is all the same
Everything you say is just too late
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love?
Never know ';til you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Never know 'til you give it a try
If you're not afraid of love
Then why the wait, love
Better know 'fore I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye
You better know for I say goodbye

Just A Little Lovin'

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/
