This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
There we were the three of us, the Thief the King and I
And finally we were forced to see we were equals in the night
Looking down between the trees, at the town we knew we had to leave
For what it's worth we will walk the Earth till we find the things we seek
And the king said...
I believe I'm a non-believer now
I was a leader but I had to leave them all
No one will ever know, the things you hide inside so let them go
Oh my god, oh my god, yes oh my god
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence, unless there's evidence
They will not protect you (we will fall)
They will not defend you
You'll be left behind, you'll be left behind
We will not forget this (we will know)
Someday they'll regret this
And I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
And I never gave a damn about the story's end, or even how it all began
And the one word that I seek is one that I can tell myself
And it's a long and winding road
But if you reap the seeds you sow you'll see you're really not alone
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence, unless there's evidence
There we were the three of us, the Priest the Tramp and I
Years ago we had left to roam but reunited on that night
No one had to speak a word, for we all knew what the other learned
And everything that we ever did was a way to pass the time
And the Priest said...
I believe I'm a true believer now
I was a sinner but I came to see the light
The bum and me did not agree but I must confess our jealousy
Oh my god, oh my god, yes oh my god
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend
And finally we were forced to see we were equals in the night
Looking down between the trees, at the town we knew we had to leave
For what it's worth we will walk the Earth till we find the things we seek
And the king said...
I believe I'm a non-believer now
I was a leader but I had to leave them all
No one will ever know, the things you hide inside so let them go
Oh my god, oh my god, yes oh my god
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence, unless there's evidence
They will not protect you (we will fall)
They will not defend you
You'll be left behind, you'll be left behind
We will not forget this (we will know)
Someday they'll regret this
And I'll be by your side, I'll be by your side
And I never gave a damn about the story's end, or even how it all began
And the one word that I seek is one that I can tell myself
And it's a long and winding road
But if you reap the seeds you sow you'll see you're really not alone
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence, unless there's evidence
There we were the three of us, the Priest the Tramp and I
Years ago we had left to roam but reunited on that night
No one had to speak a word, for we all knew what the other learned

I will never pretend, that I believe in anything
I will never bow down to another man even when everyone's saying I've sinned
I will never repent, unless there's evidence
I will never defend the men who make amends with any enemy's friends
I will never pretend

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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/
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
I think the song is about how life changes people, the first verse depicts people near the beginning of the journey of life. The middle verse and choruses are the journey itself, while the last verse describes the same people as in the first, yet after their individual experience in life changed them.
