Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
Only love can ease the pain
Of a boy caught in the rain
Only hope will remember
Burning flames in December
Only love
Only love...
Only faith can bring to life
One who falls by the wayside
Only trust can inspire
Soggy lungs to breathe fire
Only love
Only love...
It's only natural
The moon is just half full
We give our best away
We give our best away
Only love...
Only trust can inspire
Soggy lungs to breathe fire
Only love
Only love...
Only love
Only love...
Of a boy caught in the rain
Only hope will remember
Burning flames in December
Only love
Only love...
Only faith can bring to life
One who falls by the wayside
Only trust can inspire
Soggy lungs to breathe fire
Only love
Only love...
It's only natural
The moon is just half full
We give our best away
We give our best away
Only love...
Only trust can inspire
Soggy lungs to breathe fire
Only love
Only love...
Only love
Only love...

He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

@[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 think this song is just telling the story of a boy and a girl who fell in love with each other on a rainy December night. Only love can mend the pain that the boy feels, and that's what he's getting on this night.
