In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Tip toeing along the line
Just in case you're not fine
I'll give in to your needs
'Cause that just might be what you need
Even though it's unknown
Where the two of us will go
And what darkness we'll have to see through
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
For every tear that's caused by me
I'll give you space, but you know where I'll be
Waiting just to dry your eyes
It's so easy to find our way back once we try
Even though it's unknown
Where the two of us will go
And what darkness we'll have to see through
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
The motion of emotion is the flow I fear
And the whispers of the future now keep drawing me near
Keep drawing me near
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
Oh, 'cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
Just in case you're not fine
I'll give in to your needs
'Cause that just might be what you need
Even though it's unknown
Where the two of us will go
And what darkness we'll have to see through
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
For every tear that's caused by me
I'll give you space, but you know where I'll be
Waiting just to dry your eyes
It's so easy to find our way back once we try
Even though it's unknown
Where the two of us will go
And what darkness we'll have to see through
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
The motion of emotion is the flow I fear
And the whispers of the future now keep drawing me near
Keep drawing me near
'Cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?
Oh, 'cause I'm bound by love
And I'm thinking of what could be
Where there's a will there's a way
So will you come out and play
With me, with me?

@[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.
