@[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.
Passed out on the Tel Aviv offramp
Shot down got too close to the sun
Burned out like a molotov cocktail
Payback is the thrill of the hunt
And I know you can never question
A divine suggestion
Like a sick obsession
Give in, you got nowhere to turn, yeah
Where are you gonna run to now
Where are you gonna hide
Where are you gonna run to now
It will be cold and lonely
Until judgement day comes
And justice has won
Nonstop on a flight going nowhere
Got lost where the horses run free
Blacked out in a sweet smelling coma
Broke down on a killing spree
And I know you can never question
A divine suggestion
Like a sick obsession
Give in, you got nowhere to turn yeah
Where are you gonna run to now
Where are you gonna hide
Where are you gonna run to now
It will be cold and lonely until judgement day comes
And justice has won
My kingdom come, my will be done
And justice has won
Caught dead at the scene of the crime like a revelation in desperation
Replay at the end of the game with a mob demanding
Let justice be done
Shot down got too close to the sun
Burned out like a molotov cocktail
Payback is the thrill of the hunt
And I know you can never question
A divine suggestion
Like a sick obsession
Give in, you got nowhere to turn, yeah
Where are you gonna run to now
Where are you gonna hide
Where are you gonna run to now
It will be cold and lonely
Until judgement day comes
And justice has won
Nonstop on a flight going nowhere
Got lost where the horses run free
Blacked out in a sweet smelling coma
Broke down on a killing spree
And I know you can never question
A divine suggestion
Like a sick obsession
Give in, you got nowhere to turn yeah
Where are you gonna run to now
Where are you gonna hide
Where are you gonna run to now
It will be cold and lonely until judgement day comes
And justice has won
My kingdom come, my will be done
And justice has won
Caught dead at the scene of the crime like a revelation in desperation
Replay at the end of the game with a mob demanding
Let justice be done

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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
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.
