I've waited I'm lonely
You faded I'm jaded
Trying to hold on to
The things that were once mine
There's too much time
Wasting my time

My mind goes blank I can't think
Of nothing but you
I've waited I'm lonely
You faded I'm jaded
There's too much time
Wasting my time

And it seems we're miles away (Miles away)
When will I see you again
And it seems that I don't want to stay (I don't want to stay)
When will I see you again

And are you thinking about me
Or do you want to be free
Just tell me and I will
Let you go
There's too much time
Wasting my time

And it seems we're miles away (Miles away)
When will I see you again
And it seems that I don't want to stay (I don't want to stay)
When will I see you again

There's too much time (And all I know)
I'm in a fucked state of mind (I can't let go)
there's too much time (And all I know)
I'm in a fucked state of mind (I can't let go)

And it seems we're miles away (Miles away)
When will I see you again
And it seems that I don't want to stay (I don't want to stay)
When will I see you again
When will I see you again
When will I see you again

    To me, this song is about a girl that Tony Lavato(lead singer) is in love with. And cant be with her because of the distance. And she doesent want to commit, but he does. And he feels like he's wasting his time waiting for something to happen.

    OK dude, he's not trying to say their distant as in miles or kilometres, he means disatnt as in we don't talk. He's trying to say that he likes this girl but the girl doesn't really think of him that way and she doesn't really notice that he likes her and that he's been waiting a while for her to notice, but she won't. Gotta read between the lines man

    this song is amazing. its so cool..how they play it. to me its jsut about how nothing can ever really work out...kinda like drawing board. like no matter how hard he trys its never gonna be good enough. but still its something thats so intriguing to him that he can't lose it or forget how it was a signfigant part of his life.-linz

    I think this song is great, and I can't believe it wasn't a hit or something. The beginning riff is really strong and the way the Lavato sings the beginning is awesome. Another thing I like about this song is how it starts out as a soft melody and turns into your average Mest punk song. The lyrics are really strong and I think its impossible to truly understand the hidden meanings that are expressed in this song.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
