I got your letter
From the postman
Just the other day
So I decided
To write you this song
Just to let you know
Exactly the way I feel
To let you know
My love's for real
Because I love you
And I'll do anything
I'll give you my heart
My everything
Because I love you
I'll be right by your side
To be alive
To be your guy
If you should feel
That I don't really care
And that you're starting to lose ground
Just let me reassure you
That you can count on me
And that I will always be around
Because I love you
My heart's an open door
Girl, won't you please come on in
Because I love you
I'll be right by your side
To be alive
To be your guy
If you should feel
That I don't really care
And that you're starting to lose ground
Just let me reassure you
That you can count on me
And that I will always be around
Because I love you
My heart's an open door
Girl, won't you please come on in
Because I love you
I'll be right by your side
To be alive
To be your guy

    This cracks me up-I always thought the beginning line was "I got your letter,hmm...it was made just the other day" LOL Aside from that-the middle part of the song where it's just music and no words sounds christmasy!

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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,
