@[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.
Listen to an angel sing
Listen to the joy it brings
Out underneath the clouds
I would just shout out loud
Why do i suffer so
Why do i want to go
And don't show me better skies
Until you learn the meaning of trust
Until you learn the meaning of life
Until you learn to live of night and day
You are never going to be alright
So come on and take the stand
And kick him til you think he understand
Until you learn to live of night and day

Until you learn the meaning of life

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I agree! I can't believe no one else has commented! Favorite part= "Why do I suffer so?!!! Until you learn the meaning of trust, you’re never gonna be alright" If you don't trust in something, or someone, or yourself especially, you're probably gonna be miserable.
I freaking adore this song. So simple, yet so beautiful.
This is an excellent song. I love the line 'So put on your old fur coat, it's 1973' Ahh its soo good :)
i love the line put on your fur coat its 1973!. so simple and so right! So right on! Of course reminds of my old girlfriend. As well as all that. Want to sing to her some day. When that day comes i'll never know.<br />
I first heard this song off of 'The Girl Next Door' (the one with emile hirsch and elisha cuthbert). I fell in love with this song the first time i heard it.
