@[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.
Intro: (x2)
She said she love me but she don't know why
She don't know, She don't know why.
Verse 1:
I go my own way but still I let you take me home
I love you till the morning but then I'l be done
These streets are my home darling
That's why I'm with them and not with you
I'll walk these streets till my feet turn black and blue
So you can call me a trooper or call me a lost soul
'Cause everywhere I roam, is my home
She called me many name but still I stay the same
And she said you'll never see me again, but okay
So I... Smile and wave goodbye
While she.... Smiles trying not to cry
And still she don't know why.
Chorus:
She said she love me but she don't know why
She don't know, She don't know why. (x4)
Verse 2:
She said the only way I communicate is through my song
Well she likes to talk and I hate to listen but she just carries on
Bah dah dit dah dit dah day, scum dumb diddly dee dah day
Yes I communicate through song
She says unemotinally I "?" myself
And that my pride is too strong
So I and I stand alone, Yes I continue to womanise
I give them a bit of my soul, for a piece of their pie
And still she, she calls me from time to time
Asking herself "Why oh Why"
Chorus:
She said she love me but she don't know why
She don't know, She don't know why. (x3)
She said she love me but she don't know why (fading)
She said she love me but she don't know why
She don't know, She don't know why.

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/

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
