I just can't seem to give you up
You're mine, you're mine (eternal, eternal, eternal)
Mine (mine)
Mine
Mine (you're mine)
Mine

I can't seem to live without your love
Suffocating here by myself, dying for your touch
Spring time eyes that get you every time
And I just can't seem to give you up, you're mine

You made me feel
Our love would never end
How can I forget
Baby, we were the best
Suffered dreams of you all through the night
And, baby, I can't seem to give you up, you're mine

I can't seem to give you up, you're mine (baby, you're mine)
I can't seem to give you up, you're mine (oh-oh)

Summer days and summer nights
When I felt you in my arms
Didn't I want you badly
Wanted to let you have me

Autumn days and stormy nights
When you crushed me with your charms
Didn't I need you madly
Now I'm lying here falling apart

I can't seem to live without your love
Suffocating here by myself, dying for your touch
Spring time eyes that get you every time
And I just can't seem to give you up, you're mine

Boy, you made me feel
Our love would never end
How can I forget
Baby, we were the best
I suffered dreams of you all through the night
And, baby, I can't seem to give you up, you're mine

I can't seem to give you up, you're mine (baby, you're mine)
I can't seem to give you up, you're mine

Oh, you made me feel
Like love would never end
Tell me how can I forget that
My baby we were the best
I suffer in dreams of you all through the night
And, baby, I can't seem to give you up, you're mine

I can't seem to give you up, you're mine
I can't seem to give you up you're mine

(Eternal, eternal, eternal)

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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/

Magical
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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
