This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Well, I just can't seem to pity
'Cause my heart's too numb to feel
And the smile does all the talking
Though the pain is all that's real
With the way that you keep screaming
I can hardly hear to think
And I feel the bridges burning
Underneath my feet
[Chorus]
Where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
Where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
Oh, how the road feels so long
But where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
I just want to stay dreaming
No, I just don't want to wake
Why can't we keep on sailing
Across this emerald lake?
My forehead is still bleeding
From the thorns I used to wear
And I'm left alone and beaten
For this cross I choose to bear
[Chorus]
Well, I finally found what I'm looking for
Though the road's still long and the light is still far
But I finally found what I'm looking for
Well, I finally found what I'm looking for
Though the road's still long and the light is still far
But I finally found what I'm looking for
Well, the voices fall like timber
And the fear it pours like rain
And my heart is crushed to cinders
Underneath this kind of pain
Well, there is no resolution
When the revolution's dead
So I'm left with no solution
For the voices in my head
[Chorus]
'Cause my heart's too numb to feel
And the smile does all the talking
Though the pain is all that's real
With the way that you keep screaming
I can hardly hear to think
And I feel the bridges burning
Underneath my feet
[Chorus]
Where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
Where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
Oh, how the road feels so long
But where do you go, oh
When you're gone?
I just want to stay dreaming
No, I just don't want to wake
Why can't we keep on sailing
Across this emerald lake?
My forehead is still bleeding
From the thorns I used to wear
And I'm left alone and beaten
For this cross I choose to bear
[Chorus]
Well, I finally found what I'm looking for
Though the road's still long and the light is still far
But I finally found what I'm looking for
Well, I finally found what I'm looking for
Though the road's still long and the light is still far
But I finally found what I'm looking for
Well, the voices fall like timber
And the fear it pours like rain
And my heart is crushed to cinders
Underneath this kind of pain
Well, there is no resolution
When the revolution's dead
So I'm left with no solution
For the voices in my head
[Chorus]

@[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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
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/
after reading i assume he is religious, so maybe someone with a better understanding of the bible could elaborate better, but i will take a stab anyway.
the order of this seems to tell a story. first he is questioning and waiting ("How the road feels so long", "Where do you go when your gone?") his life is looked as a dream ("I just want to stay dreaming, No I just don't want to wake") wake meaning death. but then he is tested and passes ("Im left alone and beaten For this cross I choose to bear") which leads him to truth ("Well I finally found what I'm looking for") voices could be the saved dying? ("Well the voices fall like timber") as things turn for the worse ("And the fear it pours like rain") he dies and is saved ("And my heart is crushed cinders") 'ashes' ("But where do you go, When you're gone?") he's asking will you go to heaven...
