Whoa
Whoa

Listen up I'm gonna' tell you a bit about myself
I got a situation, ain't concerning nobody else
Just you and what you can do for me
(Ooh)

I've had the life of ordinary, I spat it out
Now my condition's kind of scary, I need you now
Not love but I need something else

So here's my confession (this time, this time)
Don't just want you to love me
I want to be your attention (this time, this time)
Want my name on the marquee

I want you (to want me)
I want you (to need me)
I want you
To hear my confession

I want to be your obsession

(Whoa)

I'll fake sick, shy until you never let me go
So I can be your addiction in the stereo
I could be, just your type of high
(I can give what you like)

Your talkin' bout' the narcissist you met in hollywood
I'm lovin' myself, the word I need's for you to feel good (let's go)
Let the music just take control

So here's my confession (this time, this time)
Don't just want you to love me
I want to be your attention (this time, this time)
Want my name on the marquee (whoa)

I want you (to want me)
I want you (to need me)
I want you
To hear my confession

I want to be your obsession
I want to be your obsession

Whoa
Whoa
Whoa

Ain't nothing wrong with OCD
Long as it's for me, long as it's for me

Ain't nothing wrong with OCD
Long as it's for me, long as it's for me

Here's my confession (this time, this time)
Don't just want you to love me
I want to be your attention (this time, this time)
Want my name on the marquee (whoa)

I want you (to want me)
I want you (to need me)
I want you
To hear my confession

I want to be your obsession
I want to be your obsession
I want to be your obsession

Ooh

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
