Love is a many splendored thing
Love lifts us up where we belong
All you need is love!

Please, don't start that again

All you need is love

A girl has got to eat

All you need is love

Or she'll end up on the streets

All you need is love

Love is just a game

I was made for loving you baby, you were made for loving me

The only way of loving me baby, is to pay a lovely fee

Just one night, give me just one night

There's no way, 'cause you can't pay

In the name of love, one night in the name of love

You crazy fool, I won't give in to you

Don't leave me this way
I can't survive without your sweet love, oh baby
Don't leave me this way

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs

I look around me and I see, it isn't so, oh no

Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs

Well what's wrong with that? I'd like to know
'Cause here I go again!
Love lifts us up where we belong
Where eagles fly, on a mountain high

Love makes us act like we are fools
Throw our lives away, for one happy day

We could be heroes! Just for one day

You, you will be mean

No I won't!

And I, I'll drink all the time

We should be lovers

We can't do that

We should be lovers, and that's a fact

Though nothing, will keep us together

We could steal time

Just for one day
We could be heroes, forever and ever
We could be heroes, forever and ever
We could be heroes

Just because I will always love you

I

Can't help loving you

How wonderful life is

Now you're in the world

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.
