@[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.
4 o’clock in the morning
Shadows dancing upon the wall
I woke up in the middle of a bad dream
I was spending my money on foreign calls
They was laughing, I was mourning
Crawling up the biggest waterfall
I got hit by the bus in the light beam
Bare knuckle, I’m a punching ball
It’s a never ending story
Raised on the river said your baby doll
I’m in it for the pride and glory
The battle is on
You’re hit, you’re gone
Now count to 20 and here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again
She’s running around her grave stone
I’m playing on a mountain top
Going back and fourth on my knee bones
Now the man and the mouse makes a mighty drop
Get on up on your feet to the love store
Hey bubbles, wanna smell the candy?
The elevator don’t go to the top floor
But the battle is on
You’re hit, you’re gone
Now count to 20 and here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go
Here we go again....

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/
