Now I have finally accepted
We will never stand in the same room
I can never hear your voice of reason
At least you didn't, didn't feel a thing

When I was younger, you would tell me
That I should wait to grow up
That things don't go always as planned
At least you didn't, didn't feel a thing

No, you didn't, didn't have to feel a thing
No, you didn't feel

When I die, I'll be fine
'Cause I know you're always there
When I die, I'm alright
'Cause I know you'll be there, you are home

Now I'm standing at a crossroad
Don't know which path is calling me
I wanna follow in your footsteps
So you know you're never alone

No, you didn't, didn't have to feel a thing
No, you're never alone

When I die, I'll be fine
'Cause I know you're always there
When I die, I'm alright
'Cause I know you'll be there, you are home

I'm still here but I'm waiting
For our long conversations
I'm still here but I'm waiting to go home

When I die, I'll be fine
'Cause I know you're always there
When I die, I'm alright
'Cause I know you'll be there, you are home
(No, you didn't, didn't have to feel a thing)

No, you didn't, didn't have to feel a thing
You are home, you are home

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.
