@[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.
My tired heart ticks like an electric clock.
Heavy on my wrist, wish I could make it stop.
I've always waited for you.
I've always waited for you.
They must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, officer. Officer, let me go.
Just let me go.
I fell off branches and landed on my back.
Thought I could take it, but my wings are made of wax.
I've always waited for
You must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, officer. Officer, let me go.
All that salt in the air.
They just talk and they stare.
I'm a tired ghost, barely there.
And the city don't care.
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit lost in space.
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit out of place.
They must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, give it up, give it up.
Take me home.
All that sound in the air. They just spit and they stare.
I am lost, I know. Losing hope, barely there.
And the city don't care.
Heavy on my wrist, wish I could make it stop.
I've always waited for you.
I've always waited for you.
They must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, officer. Officer, let me go.
Just let me go.
I fell off branches and landed on my back.
Thought I could take it, but my wings are made of wax.
I've always waited for
You must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, officer. Officer, let me go.
All that salt in the air.
They just talk and they stare.
I'm a tired ghost, barely there.
And the city don't care.
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit lost in space.
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit
I must admit I'm a little bit out of place.
They must have known I was talking in code.
Come on, give it up, give it up.
Take me home.
All that sound in the air. They just spit and they stare.
I am lost, I know. Losing hope, barely there.
And the city don't care.

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/

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.
Sort of reminds me of Quentin Compson from The Sound & The Fury...
