is this as good as it can get?
cuz if it is, i'd rather be dead
what does excitement even mean?
I've only seen it in my dreams

you promised me a million things,
but I would settle for just one
well i'm through talkin about it,
its time we made something happen

turn it over, don't look past your shoulder
theres nothing left in this old town
chase it after, an overdue disaster
for you and me, as we drive
and we'll say goodbye

lets pretend we're in the movies
lets make a scene, make history
you get the gun, i'll plan it out
and on the run, romance story

turn it over, don't look past your shoulder
theres nothing left in this old town
chase it after, an overdue disaster
for you and me, as we drive

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/
