This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Ah 王様の声に逆らって
ばれちゃった夜にキミは笑っていた
Ah オーロラにさわれる丘の上
両手をのばして僕を誘っていた
ほどけてバラバラになったビーズ
キレイだねって夜空にプレゼント
Ah 道化師は素顔を見せないで
冗談みたいにある日居なくなった
世界は今日も簡単そうにまわる
そのスピードで涙も乾くけど
キミの夢が叶うのは
誰かのおかげじゃないぜ
風の強い日を選んで
走ってきた
今頃どこでどうしてるのかな
目に浮かぶ照れた後ろ姿に
会いたいな
キミの夢が叶うのは
誰かのおかげじゃないぜ
風の強い日を選んで
走ってきた
飛べなくても不安じゃない
地面は続いているんだ
好きな場所へ行こう
キミなら それが出来る
ばれちゃった夜にキミは笑っていた
Ah オーロラにさわれる丘の上
両手をのばして僕を誘っていた
ほどけてバラバラになったビーズ
キレイだねって夜空にプレゼント
Ah 道化師は素顔を見せないで
冗談みたいにある日居なくなった
世界は今日も簡単そうにまわる
そのスピードで涙も乾くけど
キミの夢が叶うのは
誰かのおかげじゃないぜ
風の強い日を選んで
走ってきた
今頃どこでどうしてるのかな
目に浮かぶ照れた後ろ姿に
会いたいな
キミの夢が叶うのは
誰かのおかげじゃないぜ
風の強い日を選んで
走ってきた
飛べなくても不安じゃない
地面は続いているんだ
好きな場所へ行こう
キミなら それが出来る

@[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'

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/
Here's an english translation:
"In the voice of a king you announced your opposition In the exposèd night, you were smiling Affected by the aurora, above all else Reaching out both hands, you invited me
The beads which shattered into little pieces 'Isn't it pretty?' The night sky was a present to us
I couldn't believe he wasn't there that day-- The clown, who couldn't show his true face
Today, too, the world just spins along At a speed like this, tears can't help but dry, and yet--
If your dreams come true It won't be because of anyone but yourself You choose to run Even on the days when the wind blows hard
I wonder if somewhere, something's going wrong about now When I envision your shy, departing form How I want to see you again
If your dreams come true It won't be because of anyone but yourself You choose to run Even on the days when the wind blows hard
Even if you can't fly, it's no problem: The ground goes on anyway. Let's go to the place that you love It's you we're talking about--I know you can do it."
I'm pretty sure it's about being true to yourself, instead of hiding it. The lyrics are lovely and the music is awesome as usual.
this song is really good the last part of the song "If your dreams come true It won't be because of anyone but yourself You choose to run Even on the days when the wind blows hard
Even if you can't fly, it's no problem: The ground goes on anyway. Let's go to the place that you love It's you we're talking about--I know you can do it." it reminds me of myself and someone very close to me this song is about overcoming pain and having the strength to walk on your own 2 legs even if theres no one behind you
The 2 people above got part of it right but I think there's also a love story in there as well. He remembers of times spent together, wonders how she's doing and hopes she's got the strength to believe in herself. Most obvious of course is the fact that he wants to see her again. I'm just guessing it's her because the singer is a guy :D
