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”
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for love
Now I think it's time to make the floor burn!
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for love
Can't you see now what I am saying
The beat is rough and I ain't playing
Mysterious things we like to know
Secret things that you never showed
A vision of something you're driving for
You gave me the key and I opened the door
There's something between us, you and me
'Cause your love is like a unsolved mystery
A mystery is what you are to me
You keep me guessing, I feel like stressing
All the time yeah you blow my mind
I don't know what I am searching for
Everytime you're around, you're asking for more
I'm interested to know what you are all about
You're the only on without a doubt
You've got me acting so delirious
Everything about you girl; Mysterious
Something you want to figure out but you don't know how? Mysterious
You move mysterious
You look mysterious
You are mysterious
So mysterious
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for
Love
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for love
Now I think it's time to make the floor burn!
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for love
Can't you see now what I am saying
The beat is rough and I ain't playing
Mysterious things we like to know
Secret things that you never showed
A vision of something you're driving for
You gave me the key and I opened the door
There's something between us, you and me
'Cause your love is like a unsolved mystery
A mystery is what you are to me
You keep me guessing, I feel like stressing
All the time yeah you blow my mind
I don't know what I am searching for
Everytime you're around, you're asking for more
I'm interested to know what you are all about
You're the only on without a doubt
You've got me acting so delirious
Everything about you girl; Mysterious
Something you want to figure out but you don't know how? Mysterious
You move mysterious
You look mysterious
You are mysterious
So mysterious
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for
No way of controlling my body; Mysterious
You touch me that way, my souls of above
When we say goodbye
There's now turning back for
Love

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
