@[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.
And I said I want you, to want me
Well I want you, to need me
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times
Has the game changed, have the rules changed
And as we're getting older, is it getting colder
If you know, well if you know now, won't you tell me
Summers coming soon, my heart's been growing wild
I walk without planning, I walk just like a child
So go speed to somewhere, the world you can't control
So runs the resurrection, the tired souls
And everybody wants to feel needed some times
The cold now don't let go, and why I need to know it
The west wind been calling, my heart is falling
In love with my shoes, walk off these blues
World I have not seen, places I've not been
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times
And I said I want you, to want me
And I want you, to need me
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times
Well I want you, to need me
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times
Has the game changed, have the rules changed
And as we're getting older, is it getting colder
If you know, well if you know now, won't you tell me
Summers coming soon, my heart's been growing wild
I walk without planning, I walk just like a child
So go speed to somewhere, the world you can't control
So runs the resurrection, the tired souls
And everybody wants to feel needed some times
The cold now don't let go, and why I need to know it
The west wind been calling, my heart is falling
In love with my shoes, walk off these blues
World I have not seen, places I've not been
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times
And I said I want you, to want me
And I want you, to need me
'Cause everybody wants to feel needed some times

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,
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/
Punchline

Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Guess I'm first to post. Like this song. Its nice and its hearfelt. And I can't believe there's only three songs up for this guy. Come on people
