@[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.
here i am on my own again
i'm keeping a safe distance
cause i don't want the world to see
how you got the best of me
you think it's easy for me
to say 'goodbye'
you think it's easy for me
to see you cry
but it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
i was wrong
no it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
so here's your song
so here i am with my head in the sand
i need you to understand
it's not how i wanted it
it's not how i pictured it
you think it's easy for me
to say 'goodbye'
you think it's easy for me
to watch you cry
but it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
i was wrong
no, it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
so here's your song
the more i realised
the more i tried to hide
the less i gave to you
it came back to me
it came back to me
it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
no, it didn't have to be like this
i could never admit that i was wrong
so here's your song
i'm keeping a safe distance
cause i don't want the world to see

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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
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.
