This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Twin lives, separated only by
The time and the tides
That swept across our silent shores
I watched you fall and I saw
My face in yours
This lighthouse shines a somber hue
Along the cold ocean avenue
We fell apart far, far too soon
I'll still reach, I'll reach for you
Inside, my thoughts can strain and fret and fight
But I know it's not me
With a choice to change your restless mind
I'll stretch my light across the sea
To watch and wait
And pray one day the winds of change
Will draw you back to me
I'm still reaching
Even if you never take my hand
I'm still, I'm still reaching
Though I know it won't be the same again
I'm still reaching
Even if you never take my hand
I'm still, I'm still reaching
Though I know it won't be the same again
I'm still reaching
The time and the tides
That swept across our silent shores
I watched you fall and I saw
My face in yours
This lighthouse shines a somber hue
Along the cold ocean avenue
We fell apart far, far too soon
I'll still reach, I'll reach for you
Inside, my thoughts can strain and fret and fight
But I know it's not me
With a choice to change your restless mind
I'll stretch my light across the sea
To watch and wait
And pray one day the winds of change
Will draw you back to me
I'm still reaching
Even if you never take my hand
I'm still, I'm still reaching
Though I know it won't be the same again
I'm still reaching
Even if you never take my hand
I'm still, I'm still reaching
Though I know it won't be the same again
I'm still reaching

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
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/
