Gone are all the things I thought I knew
And all my dreams are ghosts
And every expectation left behind
Pain I thought I’d never see
Has crept into reality
Where is my hope? - It’s only found in you
Through the furnace and the flame
My heart’s refined in Jesus’ name
You say, “I’m making all things new
“And I have you right where you are
I’m in pursuit of your heart
Will you trust in me?
When you trust in me you’ll see it
And I have prepared you for this
I’m gonna see you through it
To the other side
On the other side you’ll see it
You’ll see it
You’ll see it”
Could it be that all this time
When I was focused on my life
I should have had my vision fixed on you?
And maybe I am in this place
Of sorrow just to see your grace
‘Cause even when it’s dark, it’s shining through
I’m running through the wilderness
But you’ve already died for this
You say, “Don’t let this break you down
“And I have you right where you are
I’m in pursuit of your heart
Will you trust in me?
When you trust in me you’ll see it.
And I have prepared you for this
I’m gonna see you through it
To the other side
On the other side you’ll see it
You’ll see it
You’ll see it
You’ll see it"
That I am with you
And I can see you, child
I won’t forsake you
I’ll never leave your side
That I am with you
And I can see you, child
I won’t forsake you
I’ll never leave your side

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/
