Early morning, rising with the sun
Resting where the sky meets the earth
Feeling the first rays of sunlight reaching into my soul
Where they reinstate the sense of my own self-worth
If you're not good, you're bad
That's far too black and white
Behold the glorious sun in all its radiance bright
It too at times is obscured by the thick blue veil of night
Still the moon and all the stars combines to reflect it's light.
cnd so it is that we are good
Thought we do not always do as we should
We lose track of right and wrong
cnd we're not always standing strong
But still don't you wanna believe
In things that eyes do not perceive
Like our light shining from within
That in a battle with our darkness can win
The gates of heaven open before me
cs my heart is given wings and flies
Leaving all pretense behind, everything is crystal clear
Even all the worry of uncertainty subsides
They say that time will come for us to be reborn
Into the newness of unity that has been torn
Into duality, into “it's us against them”
It's from a place of fear that all our conflicts stem
We're almost there, but not yet, still the stage is set
For the play we may enact according to our contract
That we may both you and I, with everybody in our home up high
To awaken from our deep and long undisturbed
Though hardly perfect sleep
If to look is to know the grace, which you bestow
Upon those that you would raise
Into a kind and loving gaze
Then to look is to see everyone as good as they can be

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

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,

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.
