Looking out my window
I can't help but think of you
Oh, oh
Since you've been gone away
I've been left feeling blue

No one can take
This pain away
My hours seem to turn a desert
As if I'm out of time
No more to lose
No more to gain
It seems the clouds
Can't take the rain
Cause if it keeps pouring down

But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
But to see my sunshine again
(Again again)

Oh oh, oh oh

Looking out my window
I can't help but reminisce
The times we shared
Oh, oh
Just memories
Of you and me

I look up and
The sky is cold
How could someone
Just take your soul so so fast
Now your gone
I quit my job
I can't stop smoking
Please believe
My heart is broken, down
I'm all alone

But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
(But to see my sunshine again)
But to see my sunshine again
But to see my sunshine again
(Again again)

I'm tired of the dark
In need of the light
I wake up each morning
Waiting for you to rise
I'm scared of outside
Cause it might wash me away
I wish I could open these curtains
And I'll go and see you again
I'll see you again
If I could hold you again (again)
If I could feel you again (again)
If I could touch you again (again)

Oh oh

To see my sunshine again
Just to see my sunshine again
To see my sunshine again
Just to see my sunshine again
To see my sunshine again
Just to see my sunshine again
To see my sunshine again
Oh, oh, oh

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,

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

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.

Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
“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.
Album art
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
