Ist doch nur wasser
Wenn ein fremder weint
Bitte klar trennen
Wenn was unklar scheint
Angst von neuem -
Hier weht ein anderer wind
Bekannte gesichter
Wo alle wie blinde sind
Augen wie wir
Muender wie wir
- doch es tut uns leid:

Du bist nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nein, du bist nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nein, du bist nicht wie wir

Die menge macht sicher
Wenn man beherrschen will
Ein klares feindbild
Macht viele ganz still
Hier kann ein jeder
Sagen, was sache ist
Nur da sollst du singen
Wo dein brot du frisst
Augen wie wir
Muender wie wir
- doch es tut uns leid:

Du bist nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nein, du bist nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir
Nein, du bist nicht wie wir
Nicht wie wir

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/

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
