Well now it's all so clear to me,
It just wasn't meant to be,
You see my friend,
This is not the end, not the end.

That woman, that woman, that woman,
I see how she torments you so,
That woman, that woman, that woman,
How the torment makes your feelings grow,
That woman, that woman,
Oh, come guy - let go!

I just don't understand,
Why you think she's so grand,
Ok so you had one dance,
But we both know you got no chance.

That woman, that woman, that woman,
I see how she torments you so,
That woman, that woman, that woman,
How the torment makes your feelings grow,
That woman, that woman,
Oh, come guy - let go!

It's not mutual, nope no way,
Come on now let's get away,
Plenty more fish in the sea,
C'est la vie, c'est la vie.

That woman, that woman, that woman,
I see how she torments you so,
That woman, that woman, that woman,
How the torment makes your feelings grow,
That woman, that woman,
Oh, come guy - let go!

I know it's blunt, I know it's hard,
But catch your balance, stay on guard,
Guy, I know you are strong,
Don't worry you're not in the wrong.

That woman, that woman, that woman,
I see how she torments you so,
That woman, that woman, that woman,
How the torment makes your feelings grow,
That woman, that woman,
Guy I know you are strong,
Thank you for letting me sing your song.
Oh, come now; let's go!

    A song written by Gallacher to Henry. Henry fancied this girl, or rather, That Woman, and Gallacher was trying to help him through the realisation of rejection.

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
