"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him.
There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.
Asta las 4 paredes me aogan y siento dolor
Todo me recuerda a ti
Todo me lleva hasta ti
Soy
Una collecion de fotos que no tiene a donde ir
Me siento atrapado porque jugando al amor me quede?
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado encuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Y tu ya no estas
(y se que no estas a mi lado pero aun sigo
Perdidamente enamorado de ti corazon
Y no se aguiten mis alacranes musical)
Hoy
Preguntando a la gente si saben en donde esta
Se que ellos me mienten
Porque tu lo sabias tambien
Hoy
Eh encontrado en mi puerta y no se ni que decir
Que me perdones quiero que sepas que ahora estoy?
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado ecuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Solo tan solo
Solo me acuerdo de ti
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado ecuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Y tu ya no estas ya no estas?
Todo me recuerda a ti
Todo me lleva hasta ti
Soy
Una collecion de fotos que no tiene a donde ir
Me siento atrapado porque jugando al amor me quede?
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado encuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Y tu ya no estas
(y se que no estas a mi lado pero aun sigo
Perdidamente enamorado de ti corazon
Y no se aguiten mis alacranes musical)
Hoy
Preguntando a la gente si saben en donde esta
Se que ellos me mienten
Porque tu lo sabias tambien
Hoy
Eh encontrado en mi puerta y no se ni que decir
Que me perdones quiero que sepas que ahora estoy?
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado ecuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Solo tan solo
Solo me acuerdo de ti
Perdidamente enamorado
Terriblemente ilusionado por tu amor
Solo a tu lado ecuentro la paz a mi interior
Perdidamente enamorado
Desesperado porque pierdo la razon
Y de repente abro las puertas de mi corazon?
Y tu ya no estas ya no estas?

@[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/
Punchline

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
