One questions what can't be done
You tear me down with the same thing
There's nothing thee and it's begun
What can you do when it all drains

Down there, you go always
See if I care faded
Down, don't you know where I'll be
'cause I'm here, on my own

Waiting, when I'm waiting
(downtown now)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll say...

When you walk don't leave a note
Just put your hands on the back door
When you talk it's just a joke
Just no, I can't take it anymore

Down there, you go always
See if I care faded
Down, don't you know where I'll be
'cause I'm here, on my own

Waiting, when I'm waiting
(downtown now)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll be, waiting (waiting)
When I'm waiting (downtown now)
I'll tell you once more
That, as long as you're gone

Then I'll say...
Outside there's no place I can hide
And your dead of time
Is anything alright
When the wind tries
Make storm walls outside
You'll be outside
I'm in here and I'll guard

Waiting, when I'm waiting
(downtown now)
I've been here before, and I don't care where I'm going
So I'll be, waiting (waiting)
When I'm waiting (downtown now)
I'll tell you once more
That, as long as you're gone

And I'll say...
I missed it
I missed it
And you'll call then I'll stay
Stay...

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/
