In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I'm sorry that I loved you, I'm sorry that I cared. I'm sorry that I played the games you did they, never got us anywhere.
I'm sorry if this hurts you, I'm sorry I just lied. The truth is I don't care if you get hurt or not for all the tears you made me cry.
I should have known we'd never get anywhere can't fall in love when your falling apart. Can't make amense if your only making mistakes, empty words can't fix a broken heart.
If the world froze over and everybody died and you and I were the only ones alive, I'd say I'm sorry you made it it's more than you deserve. Don't try to make it better you'll only make it worse.
I'm sorry that you miss me, I'm sorry I don't care. I was just a crutch for your loneliness, your heart was never really there. I'm sorry that I wasted so much of my time, time I could have spent with someone else would have meant less of you and all you lies. I should have known, we'd never get anywhere can't fall in love when your falling apart. Can't make amense when your only making mistakes, empty words can't fix a broken heart.
If the world froze over and everybody died, and you and I were the only ones alive I'd say I'm sorry you made it it's more than you deserve. Don't try to make it better you'll only make it worse.
If the world froze over and everybody died, and you and I were the only ones alive I'd say I'm sorry you made it it's more than you deserve. Don't try to make it better you'll only make it worse.
If the world froze over and only I survived. I'd sing these words at you funeral:It's good to be alive.
If the world froze over and everybody died, and you and I were the only ones alive I'd say I'm sorry you made it it's more than you deserve. Don't try to make it better you'll only make it worse.
I'd say I'm sorry you made it it's more than you deserve. You always make it worse.
I'm sorry if this hurts you, I'm sorry I just lied. The truth is I don't care if you get hurt or not for all the tears you made me cry.
I should have known we'd never get anywhere can't fall in love when your falling apart. Can't make amense if your only making mistakes, empty words can't fix a broken heart.

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'

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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
The song describes itself. It's a slap in the face to some piece of shit ex of hers. I mean she could care less what happens to him.
