Today is the day
For dancing and for singing
The birds in the trees and all
The bells are ringing
The sun is in the sky
Is bright as bright second light
Is bright oh god I hope I'm alright
Cause I'm gonna cry
Hold on, hold on
Slow down, slow down
You're out of touch
Out of touch
'Cause there is no design for life
There's no devil's haircut in my mind
There is not a wonder wall to climb
To climb or step around
But there is a slide show and it's so slow
Flashing through my mind
Today was the day
But only for the first time
Hold on, hold on
Slow down, slow down
You're out of touch
Out of touch
'Cause there is no design for life
There is no devil's haircut in your mind
There is not a wonder wall
To climb or step around
But there is a sideshow and it's so slow
Flashing through my mind
Today was the day
But only for the first time
I hope it's not the last time
For dancing and for singing
The birds in the trees and all
The bells are ringing
The sun is in the sky
Is bright as bright second light
Is bright oh god I hope I'm alright
Cause I'm gonna cry
Hold on, hold on
Slow down, slow down
You're out of touch
Out of touch
'Cause there is no design for life
There's no devil's haircut in my mind
There is not a wonder wall to climb
To climb or step around
But there is a slide show and it's so slow
Flashing through my mind
Today was the day
But only for the first time
Hold on, hold on
Slow down, slow down
You're out of touch
Out of touch
'Cause there is no design for life
There is no devil's haircut in your mind
There is not a wonder wall
To climb or step around
But there is a sideshow and it's so slow
Flashing through my mind
Today was the day
But only for the first time
I hope it's not the last time

@[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/
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
I don't know about you lot, but I think this is an optimistic song. He is crying because he is so happy, he is just questioning if that is normal. The slide show are those happy images and great moments that stay with you forever. That is why at the end Fran says "I hope it's not the last time". It is his first moment of joy, taking pleasure in the mundane things not always hoping and waiting for one defining moment (i.e. a big hit song) or what they describe.
Awesome song and album too!! such easy listening
