Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
You're so incredible
Ever since the day we became, we became so personal
Every day that I spend with you it gets unforgettable
Anything that I did with you, I don't regret at all
(I love everything about you)
Take away (oh yeah) your gold and platinum chains
(And I'm gonna love you, baby)
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway
(I ain't in it for the cheddar, baby)
I'm not in it for, for the love of cash (oh no, no)
(You might go broke, but I'm, I'm not)
'Cause if you go broke, I gotta make it last
(Goin' nowhere, nowhere, nowhere)
Listen, let's make it national
I want the whole world to know
I'm with you, and I'm, I'm in love
Ain't no girl in this world
Can fill your shoes, none, not at all
The things you do for me is so unbelievable
And you can take away all the platinum chains
Take away your gold and platinum chains
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway
(I'ma love you anyway, yes, I am)
I'm not in it for, for the love of cash
(I'm only in it for the love of you)
'Cause if you go broke, I gotta make it last
(I gotta make it last baby)
I just want to be the perfect match (I just)
You don't even have to ask (you don't have to ask)
I just want to be the perfect match
We become so attached
(We become so attached, baby, that's all I ask)
I just want to be the perfect match
You don't even have to ask
I just want to be the perfect match (be the perfect match, baby)
We become so attached (so attached, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah)
Now can you hold me? Now can you feel me?
Now can you get near me?
For once in your lifetime, for once in your lifetime
Now can you hold me? Now can you feel me?
Now can you get near me?
For once in your lifetime, for once in your lifetime
Take away your gold and platinum chains
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway
I'm not in it for, for the love of cash
'Cause if you go broke, I gotta make it last
Ever since the day we became, we became so personal
Every day that I spend with you it gets unforgettable
Anything that I did with you, I don't regret at all
(I love everything about you)
Take away (oh yeah) your gold and platinum chains
(And I'm gonna love you, baby)
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway
(I ain't in it for the cheddar, baby)
I'm not in it for, for the love of cash (oh no, no)
(You might go broke, but I'm, I'm not)
'Cause if you go broke, I gotta make it last
(Goin' nowhere, nowhere, nowhere)
Listen, let's make it national
I want the whole world to know
I'm with you, and I'm, I'm in love
Ain't no girl in this world
Can fill your shoes, none, not at all

And you can take away all the platinum chains
Take away your gold and platinum chains
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway

For once in your lifetime, for once in your lifetime
Take away your gold and platinum chains
'Cause I'm gon' love, love you anyway
I'm not in it for, for the love of cash
'Cause if you go broke, I gotta make it last

@[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.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
it is just all for Aaliyah. Some parts of the song I didnt get but in most of the parts I can tell that they were making it for her.
