@[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 know I love watching you,
As you come and as you go
I love the way you move around
You're beautiful,
just like the star of a picture show
And I can see the pain you hide,
The way your face gets twisted,
Like you was on a scary ride
And I know that the reason you hurt is me
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone
I know you always follow through
And that you take good care of me
And you never break your word,
When you make it your heart stays true
And it's plain to see
Now you know that I'm telling lies, girl
Your heart's broken and your head's in a whirl
I hope it's in your heart to be forgiving me
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone
As you come and as you go
I love the way you move around
You're beautiful,
just like the star of a picture show
And I can see the pain you hide,
The way your face gets twisted,
Like you was on a scary ride
And I know that the reason you hurt is me
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone
I know you always follow through
And that you take good care of me
And you never break your word,
When you make it your heart stays true
And it's plain to see
Now you know that I'm telling lies, girl
Your heart's broken and your head's in a whirl
I hope it's in your heart to be forgiving me
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone
Let me take you where no fun ever happens
I'm just no fun
And I know trust doesn't matter,
When it's gone

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
