This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
This is not a lullaby,
One that makes you close your eyes
Here's a song that will not try
To hold you in my arms
This is not a true love song,
One that lifts your heart along
Because you know it's being sung
To hold you in my arms
The rain it falls
Right outside your door
And you know if you call
I'll be there, I'll be there
Whatever you call me for
This is just a quiet tune,
To bring the light into your room
When I'm not right in front of you
To hold you in my arms
When the rain it falls
Right outside your door
And you know if you call
I'll be there, I'll be there
Whatever you call me for
This is not a lullaby
To keep the clouds out of the sky,
To be sure you will not cry
When I hold you in my arms
When I hold you in my arms
When I hold you in my arms
I'm gonna hold you in my arms
I'm gonna hold you in my arms
One that makes you close your eyes
Here's a song that will not try
To hold you in my arms
This is not a true love song,
One that lifts your heart along
Because you know it's being sung
To hold you in my arms
The rain it falls
Right outside your door
And you know if you call
I'll be there, I'll be there
Whatever you call me for
This is just a quiet tune,
To bring the light into your room
When I'm not right in front of you
To hold you in my arms
When the rain it falls
Right outside your door
And you know if you call
I'll be there, I'll be there
Whatever you call me for
This is not a lullaby
To keep the clouds out of the sky,
To be sure you will not cry
When I hold you in my arms
When I hold you in my arms
When I hold you in my arms
I'm gonna hold you in my arms
I'm gonna hold you in my arms

@[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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Magical

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
American Town

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
“Not A Lullaby” really is a lullaby for a baby or toddler who is resisting being comforted to sleep. When you know that a quiet lullaby will make them sleepy, but if you say you’ll sing a lullaby they protest. So you say “don’t worry, this is not a lullaby”. Baby gaslighting
This is a love song but not in your typical way because it is presented as something that is not so. It reminds me a person that wants to write a love song and tell the other person how they feel but at the same time is terrified of the reaction they might get.
i think it's about being there for someone for THEM, and not to feel needed. helping out, not to make the person want to be held in your arms, but for them to thoroughly feel/be better :)
It might have been written for one of the couples' children (they have a few).
