This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I know you sat alone so many nights waiting for me
Cold, your face like a stone, I hang up the phone when we disagree
Standing there by my side when the fighting is done
Glaring at me in the light is my little toy gun
Shiny & black like shoes on a rack with a trigger that's dressed up in gold
It's always warm inside my home but it's handle is always so cold
Whispering into my ear, all the lies you spun
My single greatest fear is my little toy gun
Wait for the day when I can save face and come to a happy home
I know it's turning me to the count of girl who'd rather be alone
Just wait til I get my way -- I promise you it won't be fun
If you feel like you should pray, pray for my little toy gun
Cold, your face like a stone, I hang up the phone when we disagree
Standing there by my side when the fighting is done
Glaring at me in the light is my little toy gun
Shiny & black like shoes on a rack with a trigger that's dressed up in gold
It's always warm inside my home but it's handle is always so cold
Whispering into my ear, all the lies you spun
My single greatest fear is my little toy gun
Wait for the day when I can save face and come to a happy home
I know it's turning me to the count of girl who'd rather be alone
Just wait til I get my way -- I promise you it won't be fun
If you feel like you should pray, pray for my little toy gun

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.

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.
Wow.
Is it just me or does anyone else think that "little toy gun" is some serious innuendo there?
Also, I think the lyric is "kind of girl", not "count of girl". Accents are a pain. XD
