@[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've been through this already
And I don't care what you've seen
I've changed so much since then
You want to take it steady, sure
But how long does that mean?!
Don't go home again
Why don't you keep your eyes closed
And just take a giant bite
What makes you so scared?
Well, I guessed he just supposed that
You'd be sleeping here tonight
I don't think he really cared
Now won't you please give in
And say you'll stay
You can't win if you won't play
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
There's so much I need to tell you
But I just can't find the words
I've never felt like this before
And if I say "I love you"
You pretend that you've not heard
What are you waiting for?
Oh won't you please give in
And say you'll stay
You can't win if you won't play
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
And I don't care what you've seen
I've changed so much since then
You want to take it steady, sure
But how long does that mean?!
Don't go home again
Why don't you keep your eyes closed
And just take a giant bite
What makes you so scared?
Well, I guessed he just supposed that
You'd be sleeping here tonight
I don't think he really cared
Now won't you please give in
And say you'll stay
You can't win if you won't play
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
There's so much I need to tell you
But I just can't find the words
I've never felt like this before
And if I say "I love you"
You pretend that you've not heard
What are you waiting for?
Oh won't you please give in
And say you'll stay
You can't win if you won't play
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight
Shake it, you've got to shake it
We've got to make it, make it tonight
Undress me, darling, caress me
I'll die unless we make it tonight

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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.
