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”
Don't solve the problem
When danger is bitter
Fall where we stuck them
In cages of tither
And all the bridges you've burned
Leave you trapped off at all sides
And now the tables do turn
And it's all gone, what's left for you
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Sit down, you're sinking
There's no one to watch you
Skip town, you're thinking
There's no one to stop you
And all the bridges you've burned
Leave you trapped off at all sides
And now the tables do turn
And it's all gone, what's left for you
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Stop feeling fine
It's better than your worst, your worst day
No words to say, I'll give you mine
And pocket all the hurt, and just stay
Don't run away
It's better than your worst, your worst day
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
When danger is bitter
Fall where we stuck them
In cages of tither
And all the bridges you've burned
Leave you trapped off at all sides
And now the tables do turn
And it's all gone, what's left for you
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Sit down, you're sinking
There's no one to watch you
Skip town, you're thinking
There's no one to stop you
And all the bridges you've burned
Leave you trapped off at all sides
And now the tables do turn
And it's all gone, what's left for you
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Stop feeling fine
It's better than your worst, your worst day
No words to say, I'll give you mine
And pocket all the hurt, and just stay
Don't run away
It's better than your worst, your worst day
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
And when the sky is falling
Don't look outside the window
Step back and hear I'm calling
Give up, don't take the fast road
It's just your doubt that binds you
Just drop those thoughts behind you, now
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind
You let go too soon
Don't run away
Change your mind

@[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.

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
