Everybody makes mistakes, everybody makes mistakes
Nobody's the same, oh no, not the same
Even though you made those choices
I'll still love you, yeah I'll still love you

They made you think that everything was just alright
As long as they had the cash in their hands, it's alright
Every night, the same thing over again
A vicious cycle that made you cry and pretend
That maybe you deserve this
That maybe you don't deserve to be missed
And those drugs try to fill the void
But they can't, oh no, they can't

I can see the scars across your arms, oh darling
And the same scars are on your heart, your heart
Just take my hand, hold your chin up
That's where you have got to look
The stars are still there
Just have hope

We had a rough start look how we've come so far
Look to the horizon
The moon is sky high your eyes are full of life
And I can see the sun rising
And though our boat's been thrown around with no relenting
I swear I'll get you out of this and one day hear you sing
We're home, we're home
And never again will we be alone

Hand in hand we'll make it through this
Hand in hand we'll make it through
Side by side, the future is bright
Just take a look at us we are living proof

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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.

Midnight
Ed Sheeran
“Midnight” is a song about finding a love that is so true that it provides a calming feeling through every storm. Ed Sheeran reflects on his good fortunes in landing someone with such peace and support and speaks of not fearing the dark days because he knows they’ll all end in the safety nets of her arms. “Well, good morning there / What a way to start the day / With everything laid bare,” Ed Sheeran sings in the first verse, enthusiastic to be waking up beside his woman. He apologizes for missing her calls in the second verse and promises to return them because for him, speaking to her is the most important thing. “Well, I get lost inside my head / In this chaos, you’re my calm / And I will find my feet again / ‘Cause еven the worst days of my life will always еnd / At midnight in your arms,” sings Ed Sheeran in the chorus, revelling in his good luck.
