A mans to keen to sell what I don't need
The rain it falls down up off the street
So many people, how do they all exist?
It gets me thinking, but I shouldn't think like this

I'm in danger of getting so lost.
But then again is that part of the plot?
So many people, whose problems I can't read.
It gets me thinking, do they question the same thing?

'cause I can't take it all in all at the same
time, time, time
It comes like a flood that swallows you
alive, live, live

But suddenly it'll cut you free
and point you to an empty space
'cause my everythings just a puzzle piece
of what is actually happening, actually happening here

This woman she has sadness in her eyes
They pull me in but I can't see inside
She has a life she leads, but it's nothing to do with me
So how can I understand what I can't even see?

'cause I can't take it all in all at the same
time, time, time
It comes like a flood that swallows you
alive, live, live

But suddenly it'll cut you free
and point you to an empty space
'cause my everythings just a puzzle piece
of what is actually happening, actually happening here

These thoughts will weigh me down 'til I can't breathe
I'll slot myself back in the puzzle, where I should be
where I should be

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/
