@[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.
Shake off the rain
And dry off and come inside tonight
You don't have to be alone
You don't have to be alone
You've got the prettiest face I ever did see
With eyes inside like suns
I swear I've known
And I hope to god
That you're not pretending
Cause if you are
I swear I don't know what I'm going to do
But I promise you that I'll be good to you
If you promise that you'll try to love me too
Somehow
I'd steal a hundred kisses
Before you say goodbye
And make a hundred wishes
In the name of you and I
Cause what we have is secret
So don't let no one know
The past can't come between us
If we both just let it go
Today is the perfect day
Today is the day I tell you
If you ever walk away
Then I would die right there
For you
Give me your every breath
And promise me your world
I don't ask for much at all
All I want is all you've got
Could you be that girl
While you're thinking of me
Or have I project all of my hopes
On you
And I know there'll be nights filled with tears
I know there'll be fights and fears
But that's a part of it too
So do you think I have the slightest chance to be
Everything to you
Cause you mean everything to me
I'd steal a hundred kisses
Before you say goodbye
And make a hundred wishes
In the name of you and I
Cause what we have is secret
So don't let no one know
The past can't come between us
If we both just let it go
Today is the perfect day
Today is the day I tell you
If you ever walk away
Then I would die right there
For you
For you
And dry off and come inside tonight
You don't have to be alone
You don't have to be alone
You've got the prettiest face I ever did see
With eyes inside like suns
I swear I've known
And I hope to god
That you're not pretending
Cause if you are
I swear I don't know what I'm going to do
But I promise you that I'll be good to you
If you promise that you'll try to love me too
Somehow
I'd steal a hundred kisses
Before you say goodbye
And make a hundred wishes
In the name of you and I
Cause what we have is secret
So don't let no one know
The past can't come between us
If we both just let it go
Today is the perfect day
Today is the day I tell you
If you ever walk away
Then I would die right there
For you
Give me your every breath
And promise me your world
I don't ask for much at all
All I want is all you've got
Could you be that girl
While you're thinking of me
Or have I project all of my hopes
On you
And I know there'll be nights filled with tears
I know there'll be fights and fears

So do you think I have the slightest chance to be

Before you say goodbye
And make a hundred wishes
In the name of you and I
Cause what we have is secret
So don't let no one know
The past can't come between us
If we both just let it go
Today is the perfect day
Today is the day I tell you
If you ever walk away
Then I would die right there
For you
For you

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
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/

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.
2 "broken" people fall in love, but he hasnt ever been loved back by anyone and he is saying that he isnt perfect he probably isnt anywhere good enough for her, but for some reason she seems to like him back, but then he wonders if it is just because she has been hurt, but he doesnt care he is finialy going to risk it, she means everything and he doesnt want things that they have been though, probably she has played with his heart before, but he is going to give it one more chance but if it doesnt work out then it is all over for him
