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”
I saw you leave the house last night
You rounded the bend and came across the porch and stood tall
And I've reason to believe
That you were eavesdropping on me
That you were eavesdropping on me
On me
On me
On me
On me
You rounded the bend and came across the porch and stood tall
And I've reason to believe
That you were eavesdropping on me
That you were eavesdropping on me
On me
On me
On me
On me

@[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.

definitely about someone hoping that the person they loved is still thinking about them
i am with you on this... . but to me its more like "being aware" of loving someone
when i saw them at pitchfor, they seemed to play mostly off of horn of plenty. since then I've stopped listening to yellow house. this and deep sea diver are incredible songs.
the only lyrics i was somewhat unsure of in this song was the "stood tall" part.
More likely it's "tight".
Reminds me of hanging out with a couple friends at their trailer, that happened to be just down the way from my "ex's" trailer. Quotations because we were never really together...so we couldn't be not-together...but that's how I saw her. And sometimes I wondered if she ever looked out the window and saw me.
love and waiting for sth to happen ... violin and tamborin
