Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I killed the Son of God today
I built the cross where He was slain
My sins
The hands that held the hammer that drove the nails through His skin
Someday I win
I want to make it up
I want to die to myself for You
It makes me fall apart
When I think of all that You went through
I owe my all to You (I owe my all to You)
Because when it came to do or die
You died for me
Though I would be nothing perfect
For human eyes to see
My hands are Yours for works
My eyes will seek until I've found You
My legs will walk the earth
Until You tell me my work is through
I want to make it up
I want to die to myself for You
You are the one that I love
I owe my all to you (I owe my all to you)
I met the Son of God today
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer
That drove the nails through His skin
He said I win
I'm a new creation through You
Created for You by You
So make me worth Your while
Put me to use
You are the one that I love
I owe my all to you (I owe my all to you)
I met the Son of God today
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer
That drove the nails through His skin
He said I win
I'm a new creation through You
Created for You by You
So make me worth Your while
Put me to use
I built the cross where He was slain
My sins
The hands that held the hammer that drove the nails through His skin
Someday I win
I want to make it up
I want to die to myself for You
It makes me fall apart
When I think of all that You went through
I owe my all to You (I owe my all to You)
Because when it came to do or die
You died for me
Though I would be nothing perfect
For human eyes to see
My hands are Yours for works
My eyes will seek until I've found You
My legs will walk the earth
Until You tell me my work is through
I want to make it up
I want to die to myself for You
You are the one that I love
I owe my all to you (I owe my all to you)
I met the Son of God today
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer
That drove the nails through His skin
He said I win
I'm a new creation through You
Created for You by You
So make me worth Your while
Put me to use
You are the one that I love
I owe my all to you (I owe my all to you)
I met the Son of God today
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer
That drove the nails through His skin
He said I win
I'm a new creation through You
Created for You by You
So make me worth Your while
Put me to use

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/
