Techno Ted may be a person who caused Chris incredible emotional pain & trepidation as well as moments of peace & happiness but now is removed and awaiting his fate. Darling may be a different person who is also free of him and can live her life free of Ted's tyranny. "In between all the laughing, and daydreams ... lies: a desert of truth" Lies are like a desert or the omission of Truth: Where there were Lies then Truth was absent. The song, "Techno Ted", may be a cathartic celebration of the downfall of this person.
You raise me up when I'm on the floor
You see me through when I'm lonely and scared
And I'm feeling true to the written word
And you're true to me but still I need more
It would tear me apart to feel no one ever cared
For me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me
You rescue me, you are my faith, my hope, my liberty
And when there's darkness all around
You shine bright for me, you are the guiding light
To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me
You are all passion and heart when I lay in your embrace
And heaven is in your kiss, salvation lies just a touch away
To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me
You see me through when I'm lonely and scared
And I'm feeling true to the written word
And you're true to me but still I need more
It would tear me apart to feel no one ever cared
For me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me
You rescue me, you are my faith, my hope, my liberty
And when there's darkness all around
You shine bright for me, you are the guiding light
To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me
You are all passion and heart when I lay in your embrace
And heaven is in your kiss, salvation lies just a touch away
To me
To me
To me
You are a tower of strength
To me

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
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
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/
