In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I said baby you been looking real good
You know that I remember when we met
It's funny how I never felt so good
It's a feeling that I know I know I'll never forget
Ooh it was the best time I can remember
Ooh and the love we shared
Lovin' that'll last forever
There wasn't much in this heart of mine
But there's a little left and babe you found it
It's funny how I never felt so high
It's a feeling that I know I know I'll never forget
Ooh, it was the best time I can remember
Ooh and the love we shared
Lovin' that'll last forever
I think about you
Honey you're the time my heart says yes
I think about you
Deep inside I love you best
I think about you

Honey, now you're my best friend

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/

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
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.
you can either love sb or not - true, real, genuine love is a non-gradable state. if i love a girl, i dont love her better than the other girl who has good looks but is of no signifficance to me, i love the one that i love and simply do not love the other. axl sais he loves the girl best just as many other people do when they get infatuated. they feel very elated and confident and say loads of things they have no clue about (like "ill be with you forever" and stuff like that). but it does not mean axl (and the rest of the "i love you best" people) trurly loves the woman. maybe one day, but not at that moment. it may sound crude, but it would be his testicles taking over his brain that make him say things like that.
