Oh oh oh let's go
My Fender Strat sits all alone
Collecting dust in the corner
I haven't called any of my friends
I've been MIA since last December
My blackberry's filled up with E-mail
My phone calls goes straight through to voice mail

'cause on the street, or under the covers
We're stuck like two pieces of Velcro
At the park, in the back of my car
It doesn't matter what I do,
No, I can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)
Can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)

There's fungus growing in the icebox
All I got left are Fruit Roll-Ups
My clothes are six months old
But I don't care, no no no I don't notice
My bills pile is so high, it is shocking
The repo man just keeps on knocking

'cause on the street, or under the covers
We're stuck like two pieces of Velcro
At the park, in the back of my car
It doesn't matter what I do,
No, I can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)
Can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)
Can't keep my hands off you

Sorry to all my friends and to anyone I offend
But i can't help, no i can't help it
Can't keep my, can't keep my (can't keep my hands off you)
Can't keep my, can't keep my (can't keep my hands off you)
Can't keep my, can't keep my (can't keep my hands off you)
Can't keep my, can't keep my (can't keep my hands off you)

'cause on the street, or under the covers
We're stuck like two pieces of Velcro
At the park, in the back of my car
It don't matter what I do,
No, I can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)
Can't keep my hands off you
(can't keep my, can't keep my)
Can't keep my hands off you

    My Interpretation

    I think it's about some guy that has a new girlfriend or something and he just doesn't give a fuck about anything else, maybe they go on vacation or run away somewhere and no one knows what happened to him, but he doesn't care.

    It's about a bright, handsome, creative man who has a new girlsfriend with whom he's smitten...so much so that he can't keep his paws off her. How sweet....

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

“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.
