I wanna feel the sand beneath my feet
Breathe the breath of your fresh air
Fill the silence of this room
Lay in bed when you're not there

Be the source of best advice
You're in dying need of it
Cause I love you too much to let you go now

Obviously you were too distracted
Filling your days with romantics
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of situations

Kiss me, I want you to hold me
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of the situation

I wanna see the sunset over me
Catch up with an old friend
See a girl I used to like
Do cartwheels up and down my heart

Telling secrets underwater
Giving Valentine flowers
I'll wait by this mailbox for you or your letter

Obviously you were too distracted
Filling your days with romantics
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of situations

Kiss me, I want you to hold me
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of the situations

Obviously you were too distracted
Filling your days with romantics
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of situations

Kiss me, I want you to hold me
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of the situation

Cause obviously you were too distracted
Filling your days with romantics
It's in your blood to draw attention
Make the best out of situations

    This doesn't even sound like Jordan [ESPECIALLY the verses.] I mean, I like the song alright, but I can't listen to it & think, "yeah, this is NFG!" so I think I'll always like it a little less because of that. I miss the nasally Jordan that we know & love =[

    Great song about wanting a girl who is too distracted to want to be in a relationship, and when the situations come along when your together ... make the best of them!

    Dan184 i think you're right! I had this EXACT same situation with a girl, and we even called this our song, haha!

    It's pretty much about a guy who is inlove with a girl, but relationships arn't her highest priority at that time. He obviously continuesly tries to impress her i think by making nice gestures, but she just doesn't realise this. He doesn't let this get to him too much, and deals with it in a good way (probably not what i did, lol) as the last line fade out states "make the best out of situations"

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
