This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
I thought I had life in the palm of my hand but you took it from me
Now it seems my days of careless ways in fact are turning on me
Because what seems right, feels right, ends up the most fragile of things
Now I'm spending my days in a permanent haze
Because what you stole, you took from me
Let's take the time to contemplate what we are faced
A fragile life in which design resolves being erased
If you win some, lose some
You end up in the same old place
So understand the task at hand is to live and to forgive
Let's start some living
Let's stop decaying
We can't afford to waste away
Let's start some living
Let's stop decaying
If I'd have known time could stop on a dime and cause you to cease
I'd quit running so fast and I'd try to get a grasp on the things surrounding me
But what feels right, seems right, ends up the most prominent thing
Now I'm spending my days in a permanent haze
Because what you stole, you took from me
Now it seems my days of careless ways in fact are turning on me
Because what seems right, feels right, ends up the most fragile of things
Now I'm spending my days in a permanent haze
Because what you stole, you took from me
Let's take the time to contemplate what we are faced
A fragile life in which design resolves being erased
If you win some, lose some
You end up in the same old place
So understand the task at hand is to live and to forgive
Let's start some living
Let's stop decaying
We can't afford to waste away
Let's start some living
Let's stop decaying
If I'd have known time could stop on a dime and cause you to cease
I'd quit running so fast and I'd try to get a grasp on the things surrounding me
But what feels right, seems right, ends up the most prominent thing
Now I'm spending my days in a permanent haze
Because what you stole, you took from me

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,

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.
