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”
When I was young just five years old
My mother told me to believe in God
All these years I never could forget
Should have realized it was bullshit
By looking at the scum in this world
I just can't believe what I am told
The fucked-up things that happen everyday
If there is a God why do we live this way
Because ... There is no God
God is just a name for the good in this world
Evil is just a name for all that is bad
All the people who worship one or the other
Believe me when I say they are all fucking sad
Can't trust the country in which you thrive
They build more missles to take your lives
Federal officials watching every more you make
Breathing their air and taking up their space
Nuclear holocaust is just around the corner
Always lived my life in constant fear
Radiation tears the flesh from my bones
Now I am dead and God still isn't here
My mother told me to believe in God
All these years I never could forget
Should have realized it was bullshit
By looking at the scum in this world
I just can't believe what I am told
The fucked-up things that happen everyday
If there is a God why do we live this way
Because ... There is no God
God is just a name for the good in this world
Evil is just a name for all that is bad
All the people who worship one or the other
Believe me when I say they are all fucking sad
Can't trust the country in which you thrive
They build more missles to take your lives
Federal officials watching every more you make
Breathing their air and taking up their space
Nuclear holocaust is just around the corner
Always lived my life in constant fear
Radiation tears the flesh from my bones
Now I am dead and God still isn't here

@[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/
