Every single time you take me out with you
You always flirt around with someone new
But I never criticize the sinful things you do
'Cause I'm so afraid of losing you

But in my lonely room, tears I don't have to hide
'Cause I just lock my door & let myself go
& lay right down & cry

But in my lonely room, tears I don't have to hide
'Cause I just lock my door & let myself go
& lay right down & cry


Every place we go, people are whispering
About your flirting ways, & it hurts me so to hear
But in the publics eye I just push behind all my hurt inside
& pretend i don't mind

But in my lonely room, tears I don't have to hide
But In my lonely room
Tears I don't have to hide
But in my lonely room, All I do is sit right down and cry
Oh in my lonely room
All I do is lock my door
All I do is lay right down and cry
I push my pride aside & lay right down & cry

...& fade

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.

Just A Little Lovin'
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/
