The last time I laid my eyes upon you
You were blowing kisses
I was waiting in the car
Something had died yet
Everything around kept turning
Don't even know where you are

[Chorus]
Somewhere along the line we lost the horizon
I've been looking around, up and down
Nowhere there
Someday I hope to find the horizon
I've been all around the world and nothing is clear

The last time I held you, it was head to heart
The curtain was drawing
I left you sleeping so sound
If I had known forever
After we would stay apart
I would have whispered
All the things I can't tell you now

[Chorus]

I don't believe in you
Like I so wanted to
I hope you're asking the heavens above
To forgive all the damage you've done
And if I didn't teach you anything at all
I hope that you learned how to love
But I doubt if I ever talk to you , I don't know

[Chorus]

Nothing is clear, no, no, no!
Nothing is clear to me now at all
Nothing is clear, oh nothing is clear,
Nothing is clear to me now at all
Nothing is clear, nothing is clear,
Nothing is clear to me, nothing is clear,
Nothing is clear, nothing is clear.

    "I don't believe in you like I so wanted to I hope you're asking heavens above To forgive all the damage you've done

    And if I did teach you anything at all I hope that you learned how to love But I doubt if I'll ever talk to you after now"

Fast Car
Tracy Chapman
"Fast car" is kind of a continuation of Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run." It has all the clawing your way to a better life, but in this case the protagonist never makes it with her love; in fact she is dragged back down by him. There is still an amazing amount of hope and will in the lyrics; and the lyrics themselve rank and easy five. If only music was stronger it would be one of those great radio songs that you hear once a week 20 years after it was released. The imagery is almost tear-jerking ("City lights lay out before us", "Speeds so fast felt like I was drunk"), and the idea of starting from nothing and just driving and working and denigrating yourself for a chance at being just above poverty, then losing in the end is just painful and inspiring at the same time.

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
