I go through your pictures in my phone
'Cause sometimes, they get me through the day
And whenever I start to feel alone
I just play your voicemails
That I saved before things changed
Now I read the message you sent tryna tune out
When you say I know you love me but
You should just forget about us
But I done swam to deep to come up now
You try to tell me I'll make someone happy some day
But I don't understand how you can just throw away
This heart I gave to you
Right in front of my face, oh

No, I don't wanna be friends
'Cause I done already started lovin' you

Hey, uh, listen

I wanna take a drive to where you live, but I won't
But I still feel like ain't nobody supposed to be there but me with you
It should be me there wakin' up next to you
It should be me takin' 'em showers with you
And I should be the one you want
Why you wanna go and mess up everything, baby?
Now the only thing to make it better, is if you say you wanna be mine, hey
Now don't you get it, baby, a good man like me is hard to find, yeah
Look, I don't wanna hear no maybes in the future
See, there you go puttin' me last, when I put you first
You got me listenin' to songs, but they don't work
'Cause they only remind me of how much love hurts

So no, I don't wanna be friends
'Cause I done already started lovin' you, whos-oh

Oh, whoa-oh, yeah, hey
Look here
See, I got a problem with this whole friend thing
And uh, here's my reasons why
Number one, you kiss me like you love me
Number two, you touch me like you love me (yeah, hey)
And number three, you make love to me like you love me
Yeah

So that's why I don't wanna be friends
'Cause I done already started lovin' you, oh, whoa-oh
Ayy

I don't wanna be friends, no (wanna be friends)
'Cause I already started lovin' you, yeah
Oh, whoa-oh, 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/

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
