Deep in the valley
Deep in the daydream
Can't find your way? Turn back the way you came
Like a fistful of sand into the breeze, sewing up the sky, polishing the sea
From your fingertips down to your feet
Hold out your hands--beg now plead
Into the valley low
Into the winter cold
When you were young you felt so bold
A long lifetime ago
Into the darkened years
your shadow disappears
The path back home was overgrown
A long lifetime ago
Deep in the blank gaze
Deep in the sunrise
In the morning light you don't look so certain now
The future came and went in a limousine
You're standing in the stench of gasoline
From your fingertips down to your feet
Hold out your hands--beg now plead
Into the valley low
Into the winter cold
When you were young you felt so bold
A long lifetime ago
Into the darkened years
your shadow disappears
The path back home was overgrown
A long lifetime ago
Deep in the daydream
Can't find your way? Turn back the way you came
Like a fistful of sand into the breeze, sewing up the sky, polishing the sea
From your fingertips down to your feet
Hold out your hands--beg now plead
Into the valley low
Into the winter cold
When you were young you felt so bold
A long lifetime ago
Into the darkened years
your shadow disappears
The path back home was overgrown
A long lifetime ago
Deep in the blank gaze
Deep in the sunrise
In the morning light you don't look so certain now
The future came and went in a limousine
You're standing in the stench of gasoline
From your fingertips down to your feet
Hold out your hands--beg now plead
Into the valley low
Into the winter cold
When you were young you felt so bold
A long lifetime ago
Into the darkened years
your shadow disappears
The path back home was overgrown
A long lifetime ago

Holiday

@[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

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,

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Love this song.
