I am a strong man
Not such a young man
I will do all I can
For that special woman

My arms will stay strong
My love will burn along
Like the fire in the heart's song
If she's the right one

I know how to love
I ain't no liar
There's a flame in my heart
It burns like a fire

I've got all this love
I can give you if you let me
And I'll be your baptism by fire
I'll be your baptism by fire

'Cause I am a strong man
Not such a young man
I will do all I can
For that special woman, ooh

I know how to love
I ain't no liar
There's a flame in my heart
It burns like a fire

I've got all this love
I can give you if you let me
And I'll be your baptism by fire
I'll be your baptism by fire

Oh, I've searched for you
So you must know that it's true
And how I found you
Yes, I found you
I'm gonna leave it all up to you

I know how to love
I ain't no liar
There's a flame in my heart
It burns like a fire

I've got all this love
I can give you if you let me
And I'll be your baptism by fire
I'll be your baptism by fire

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/
