@[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.
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
Bullet took it easy dollar lit the room
Monsters making the evening news
Packing up a round trip, I get in the way
Now I know that
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
We could talk forever nothing would get done
Stake your claim on the morning sun
I get in the way
Now I see that
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
Yeah yeah
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
Bullet took it easy dollar lit the room
Monsters making the evening news
Packing up a round trip, I get in the way
Now I know that
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
We could talk forever nothing would get done
Stake your claim on the morning sun
I get in the way
Now I see that
You are nearer than heaven
I get the feeling I get nearer by the day
I've seen the people go forever descending
It's when we're all inside that summer's on the way
Yeah yeah

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/

Midnight

“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms.
“Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.

I love this song and i just know that the delays are gonna make it big. Has anyone heard lost in a melody? Its not on the album but its has a great tune and i really hope the Delays are successful!!
yeah, lost in a melody, or Stop as it was known when they first started berforming it, is a double A side with wanderlust, and will, hopefully, be on he new album/.
I heard LIAM is on the next album. i heart it, as well as all Delays songs. What i love about this song is the line "We could talk forever, nothing would get done." This is such a lovely line, exactly how im feeling right now. cant wait 2 c delays, april 3rd!
