@[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.
You say you gotta go and find yourself
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you
You say you're leaving
As you look away
I know there's really nothin' left to say
Just know I'm here
Whenever you need me
I'll wait for you
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
Take your time I won't go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left 'em
I'll be here for you
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
And I hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you
Come back to me
I can't get close if you're not there
I can't get inside if there's no soul to bare
I can't fix you I can't save you
It's something you have to do
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
Come back to me
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
And I hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you
Come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me.
You say that you're becoming someone else
Don't recognize the face in the mirror
Looking back at you
You say you're leaving
As you look away
I know there's really nothin' left to say
Just know I'm here
Whenever you need me
I'll wait for you
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
Take your time I won't go anywhere
Picture you with the wind in your hair
I'll keep your things right where you left 'em
I'll be here for you
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
And I hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you
Come back to me
I can't get close if you're not there
I can't get inside if there's no soul to bare
I can't fix you I can't save you
It's something you have to do
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
Come back to me
So I'll let you go
I'll set you free
And when you see what you need to see
When you find you
Come back to me
And I hope you find everything that you need
I'll be right here waiting to see
You find you
Come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me
When you find you come back to me.

Head > Heels

Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
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.
I think this song means: ok, i need to find myself and i'll be gone until i find me. and david is waiting for her until she is back with her regular self. David sets her free and waits and waits. He also mentions he can't do anything unless she's there.
