I don't want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I don't understand you and me, baby
I, I just want you to be mine

Finally baby
The truth has come down now
And now you listen to your spirit
It's crying out loud now

Tryin' to believe, yeah
You say you love me, but you don't know
You got me rockin, and a-reelin,
Oh, oh, oh

And I don't want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I don't understand you and me, baby
I, I just want you to be mine
Wanna make you be mine

Finally, baby
The truth has been told
And now you tell me that I'm crazy
Now, it's nothing that I didn't know

Tryin' to survive now
You say you love me, but you don't know
You got me rockin' and a-reelin'
Oh

And I don't want to know the reasons why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I don't understand you and me, baby
I, I just want you to be mine
Make you to be mine

Tryin' to believe in
You say you love me, but you don't know
You got me rockin' and a-reelin'
Oh

I don't want to know the reason why love keeps
Right on walking on down the line
I don't understand you and me
Baby, I, I just want you to be mine
Make you to be mine

Gonna make you to be mine
Gonna make you to be mine
Wanna make you to be mine
Oh, won't you be mine, mine, mine
Won't you be mine
Won't you make up your mind?

    this song really fit in to my life once, there was a guy who got me "rockin' and a-reeling". I wanted so much to make him mine, i'm glad i didn't do it, anyway i really was crazy and my friends was a bit mad with me cause i wasn't myself. I'm happy it's over now, but every time i hear this song it reminds me of that period. it kind of ruin the song cause i loved it really much back then i used to listen to it all day, and unfortunatly i still love it but it gives me terrible memories.

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,
