In the beginning, I believed every word that you said,
Now that you're gone my world is in shreds
Oh, you loved me and left me,
You took all the things that I needed so bad,
I'm standing here wondering where is the love that I had?
Oh, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue

In the beginning, yeah,
There was something of love that was mine,
Now that it's gone, whoa, I'm cryin'

Oh, the time that it takes for a love to grow cold is a wonder to me,
I'm walkin' around with my head hangin' down
Tell me where is she?

Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told,
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue

Don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue

Give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue
Now, give me silver, blue and gold,
The colour of the sky I'm told
My ray-ay-ain-bow is overdue, yeah

Oh, don't forsake me 'cause I love you
Don't forsake me 'cause I love you, yeah

    My Interpretation

    IT'S ABOUT A FAILED RELATIONSHIP THAT ONE GAVE UP EVERYTHING TO HAVE, AND NOW WANTS ANSWERS WHY IT ENDED.

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/
