I had a dream that I awoke
with my skin on your skin in Northern California
The curtains were dancing in the breeze
The sun came in like an over driven G-chord

We drove up on the one
past the pines and hills with the salt air all around
Pulled over on some blank canvas beach
With your breath on my cheek, I fell asleep

You're leaving me like a footprint in the Midwest snow
I'm pleading like a sold out salesman who can't let go
Me and the city, we're just memories and history
of a future that doesn't exist
Those warm summer nights and the skyline lights
they won't make up for the winters you won't miss
You won't miss...

I really thought that we would pull through
and leave this party before the cops showed
Find a quiet place with a view
close to family and old friends
But you can't forgive and I can't forget
Call it off, we're gonna call it quits
A photograph in a shoebox you're
checking on five years from now

You're leaving me like a footprint in the Midwest snow
I'm pleading like a sold out salesman who can't let go
Me and the city, we're just memories and history
of a future that doesn't exist
Those warm summer nights and the skyline lights
they won't make up for the winters you won't miss
You won't miss...

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.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.
