This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
I’d chase after your train until it speeds you from my life,
I’d watch it fade and wouldn't leave until it was totally out of sight,
we could just lay there and admire the beautiful star light,
and I’d give you my gloves if you were cold and not worry about frostbite
We'd sit there on the tire swing as I’d cradle you in my arms,
sing the song to you in the dark with my acoustic guitar,
get onto my knees and place your hand over my heart,
and I’d press my lips upon your head and tell you how beautiful you are…
Word’s cannot describe what’s hidden on my lips,
and what’s going through my mind I’m so dazed I have to sit,
my emotions running high that I have to catch my breath,
as I gaze into your eyes and fall in love with you again...
laying on the grass at the clouds we stare,
admiring your smile and the sweet smell of your hair,
I cherish every moment that you and I both share,
I would do absolutely anything to show you how much I care
word’s cannot describe what’s hidden on my lips,
and what’s going through my mind I’m so dazed I have to sit,
my emotions running high that I have to catch my breath,
as I gaze into your eyes and fall in love with you again...
I’d watch it fade and wouldn't leave until it was totally out of sight,
we could just lay there and admire the beautiful star light,
and I’d give you my gloves if you were cold and not worry about frostbite
We'd sit there on the tire swing as I’d cradle you in my arms,
sing the song to you in the dark with my acoustic guitar,
get onto my knees and place your hand over my heart,
and I’d press my lips upon your head and tell you how beautiful you are…
Word’s cannot describe what’s hidden on my lips,
and what’s going through my mind I’m so dazed I have to sit,
my emotions running high that I have to catch my breath,
as I gaze into your eyes and fall in love with you again...
laying on the grass at the clouds we stare,
admiring your smile and the sweet smell of your hair,
I cherish every moment that you and I both share,
I would do absolutely anything to show you how much I care
word’s cannot describe what’s hidden on my lips,
and what’s going through my mind I’m so dazed I have to sit,
my emotions running high that I have to catch my breath,
as I gaze into your eyes and fall in love with you again...

Little Feat
Little Feat
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”

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,
