@[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.
If your feet hurt from walking too much,
Then I will tend to them, with a velvet touch.
If your lungs just don't want to work today,
Then I'll perform a mouth to mouth until you're okay.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.
If your muscles are wound up and tight,
Then I will loosen up the knots until it feels right.
If your ears just ache from listening,
Then I'll supply the remedy in the melodies I sing.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
Well I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
Well I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.
Then I will tend to them, with a velvet touch.
If your lungs just don't want to work today,
Then I'll perform a mouth to mouth until you're okay.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.
If your muscles are wound up and tight,
Then I will loosen up the knots until it feels right.
If your ears just ache from listening,
Then I'll supply the remedy in the melodies I sing.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
Well I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.
Don't you just love the feeling of my fingertips,
Circling your lips.
Don't you just love the desire taking hold of you,
Well I can tell you do.
I know all your favorite spots,
And tonight we will connect the dots.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
Yo La Tengo
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,

Haha, yes, a very sexual song. I saw them in concert last night in Toronto, and Nick made a great speech before this song; "I feel like we can take our relationship to the next level. Sexual intercourse, if you know what I mean." After they played this song, he said "I feel much better about our relationship now; even with the dudes in here tonight, too. Nah, just kidding."
