All of the fortune-tellers say it's gonna be a long week, a long week.
'Cuz you got used to the upswing,
the feeling of a winning streak.
But the clouds, the clouds of day bring
this spot on the stage.
And the weather man is calling for a cold rain.
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.
All of the hands on the clock say
that it's getting late.
And you've been hanging around in the same old place.
But the clouds, the clouds of day bring
this spot on the stage.
And the weather man is calling for a cold rain..
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.
The lightning strikes every minute in this place, in this place, in this place.
And it would be a miracle if we get out of here unscathed.
All of the fortune-tellers say that it looks like rain.
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.
'Cuz you got used to the upswing,
the feeling of a winning streak.
But the clouds, the clouds of day bring
this spot on the stage.
And the weather man is calling for a cold rain.
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.
All of the hands on the clock say
that it's getting late.
And you've been hanging around in the same old place.
But the clouds, the clouds of day bring
this spot on the stage.
And the weather man is calling for a cold rain..
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.
The lightning strikes every minute in this place, in this place, in this place.
And it would be a miracle if we get out of here unscathed.
All of the fortune-tellers say that it looks like rain.
So cry your eyes out pretty baby,
hold my hand and trot your tongue.
Oh, it's been heavy round you lately,
and you'll feel lighter when you're done.

@[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.

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,

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.
Plastic Bag

Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
