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 met a lovely fellow
Sitting right there beside me
On a spring day
Maturity had his mercy
Cause he seem so close to perfect
In just every way
We parted ways but
By May I was in his arms
Again I knew that he was
Different by the proof that
I was feeling
Oh how love
Can sneak up on you
And tell you just what to do
It has no time, no place
It's just chooses you
I meet him in March
We made love by May
By June we were here to stay
I thank you August for your grace
It's just to bad October didn't
Do the same.
And I sure wish we made it boy
Valentine's day
Vacation is now over
And fall just walked up
And said good morning
How can I fix you coffee
If you live so damn far away from me
We parted ways by November
But I hope by December
You would come to your senses
You think of me and you remember
Oh how love
Can sneak up on you
And tell you jus' what to do
It has no time, no place
Its just chooses you
I met him in march
We made love by May
By June we were here to stay
I thank you August for your grace
It's just too bad October didn't
Do the same.
And I sure wish we made it by
Valentine's day
See baby
Baby you gotta know
That I know, that seasons change
People travel, people change
But see what we had
We had that kind of love
That just doesn't go away
People don't find that
In a lifetime
Now why, now why
I gotta make it until
Christmas, New Years,
And valentine's day without
You keeping me warm
Those kisses and
Those got damn gifts
You know what kind of gifts I give baby
I'm ready when you are
Sitting right there beside me
On a spring day
Maturity had his mercy
Cause he seem so close to perfect
In just every way
We parted ways but
By May I was in his arms
Again I knew that he was
Different by the proof that
I was feeling
Oh how love
Can sneak up on you
And tell you just what to do
It has no time, no place
It's just chooses you
I meet him in March
We made love by May
By June we were here to stay
I thank you August for your grace
It's just to bad October didn't
Do the same.
And I sure wish we made it boy
Valentine's day
Vacation is now over
And fall just walked up
And said good morning
How can I fix you coffee
If you live so damn far away from me
We parted ways by November
But I hope by December
You would come to your senses
You think of me and you remember
Oh how love
Can sneak up on you
And tell you jus' what to do
It has no time, no place
Its just chooses you
I met him in march
We made love by May
By June we were here to stay
I thank you August for your grace
It's just too bad October didn't
Do the same.
And I sure wish we made it by
Valentine's day
See baby
Baby you gotta know
That I know, that seasons change
People travel, people change
But see what we had
We had that kind of love
That just doesn't go away
People don't find that
In a lifetime
Now why, now why
I gotta make it until
Christmas, New Years,
And valentine's day without
You keeping me warm
Those kisses and
Those got damn gifts
You know what kind of gifts I give baby
I'm ready when you are

@[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.
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.
