@[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.
When I Think About June 14th It's Not Something They Want Me To Remember
All I Know On That Day Was That They Needed A Single Solitary Member
And I Look On That Day Till Then I'd Never Had A Problem That I'd Mention
But On That Day I'd Look Up To The Sky And See This Piercing Wave
That Pulled Me Towards It Took Me From This Place
And I'll Justify My Right To Be Abducted Freely Without Pain
They Tell Me It's Commonly The Same
They Looked Around And Tampered With My Mind
And Left Me On A Bail Of Hay Outside
On A Summer Day, June 14th I Learned There's More Than What We Know As Beings
All I Know It's Useless Telling People What Happened No One Would Believe Me
I Look On That Day I've Finally Found A Getaway Spot For A Vacation
And All It Takes Is Looking To The Sky And See That Piercing Wave
That Pulled Me Towards It Took Me From This Place
And I'll Justify My Right To Be Abducted Freely Without Pain
They Tell Me It's Commonly The Same
They Looked Around And Tampered With My Mind
And Left Me On A Bail Of Hay Outside

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/
