By the streets of that one bedroom apartment
We stood and watched the storm
Our eyes upon the blackened sky
As the rain began to fall
With a gentle sigh you took my hand and pulled me in
So close
Our pulses, beating a rhythm of passion as
The lightning split the sky

I gazed into your eyes so bright and gently
Caressed your face
Your soothing touch
Well, there's never quite enough
Yes, there's never enough of you and me

Our lips warm with the heat of desire as the wind tore through the streets
Of that one bedroom apartment our lips embraced once more
I gazed into your eyes so bright and gently
Caressed your face
Your soothing touch
Well, there's never quite enough
Yes, there's never enough of you and me
Two souls aglow with passion and love, as the rain began to fall

Notice my smile.
How spontaneous and true
Damn I loved you, god damn

There was never enough of you and me

Can you not hear the hum of my body
Responding to your nearness
My heart keeps time
My love is vast and deep and whole
Just like the open sea
It will go on forever more
Into eternity

Just when I thought we'd given up,
We stayed on the road and made it
I can never see you in your room
Sleeping without me

Touch me, I tremble
Hold me, I sigh
Kiss me, I melt
Ask me, Why

Just when I thought we'd given up,
We stayed on the road and made it
I can never see you in your room
Sleeping without me

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
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.

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,
