Oh, I don't know what to say
And I have told you lately
That I'm tired of talking about the same old reasons we change
Just take it easy, don't worry about a thing these days

'Cause I'm keeping it cool not thinking about you sticking around or if we should be
Tied down, I'm looking around; I know what I want, so don't hold me down

Oh, I, I don't play games; and I, I have been learning
To just let it all go and stay quiet when I feel like speaking
My mind done whatever it is I need to make clear and just say...

That I'm keeping it cool not thinking about you sticking around you if we should pay
Tied down, I'm looking around; I know why your arms don't hold me down
(Down, down, down)
Don't you hold me down

Whoa, because I'm keeping it cool not thinking about you sticking around or if we should be
Tied down, I'm looking around; I know what I want, so don't hold me down

Oh I, I can't take it
So, please, please, won't you listen
To the troubles all around me? I'm caught up and I'm barely breathin'
But I'm finding that holding on is harder than never leaving

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.

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
