its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
Mobile woman buckle down your boots
If you leave me, what else can I do
I've been a dancer, I've been a dancer all my life
But I'm not dancing 'round this one tonight
And I know I'd be doing fine
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be
I'm not asking, I'm not on my knees
But I'm not quite the knight I used to be
And I know I'd be better off
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be
I know, I'm ready but for what's the hard part
I'm being honest baby, if you're right at home
Why move it on
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be
If you leave me, what else can I do
I've been a dancer, I've been a dancer all my life
But I'm not dancing 'round this one tonight
And I know I'd be doing fine
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be
I'm not asking, I'm not on my knees
But I'm not quite the knight I used to be
And I know I'd be better off
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be
I know, I'm ready but for what's the hard part
I'm being honest baby, if you're right at home
Why move it on
Without you believin' in
Always picking up and thinking 'bout leaving
Once you stick around, then that's when I'll show you
Happiness the world can see
That's how love should be

Holiday

@[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.
Tyler Hilton is an AMAZING songwriter... he always uses really amazing thought when he is writing a song, and that is the way people should keep music.
