Got to leave town, got to get out of here
Here and now pack my bags already
Sunday morning's coming and I'm ready to go
Say goodbye to the neighborhood
Even if they could they'd never understood

You see I'm sick and tired of staying away, oh yeah
So I've made up my mind
I won't waste no more time, I won't linger behind
Got to get away, yes, I just feel like moving
On and on and on, yeah, oh well

I've been thinking about sweet river
Diving off the bridge in my woolen shorts
Contemplating how my life would be
Living like the wind that blows about the sea

Yes, I'm sick
I'm tired of staying away, oh yeah
So I've made up my mind
I won't linger behind, I won't waste no more time

Got to get away
I just feel like moving
(Moving along)
Moving along on and on
I just feel like moving on and on and on, oh girl

The spirit in me keeps telling me
By all means I must be free
Taunting me, haunting me
I got to find tranquility

Got to get away
I just feel like moving on and on and on
I just feel like moving on and on and on, yeah

Thirty, forty, forty five and fifty
I will be cruising gently on the Kings Highway
I like the vibes in my 1985
Listening reggae music on the radio

I'm leaving behind the saddest of times, oh yeah
I'm going to find a peace of mind, oh yeah
I just feel like moving on and on and on
Yes, I just feel like moving on and on and on
I just feel like moving
(Moving along)

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[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
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,

“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
