Snow blind, dog tired, snow blind
And barb wired, last chance in the jungle trance
And the fast step of the monkey dance craze
War paint, misty days and dizzy faint
Keeping the faith, spinning turning
Watch the flames of bridges burning
Turning colors and shedding skin, shining brightly
Thick and thin, mirror of Gods, legend and myth
The fatal charm of the treasure, gift wrapped
And heaven sent, so trapped on islands of intent
Avenging angel of the wild and yearning
Stoke the flames of bridges burning
Burning me over, bridges burning
Burning, drives me wild, yearning for the small child
Blind men cry but shed no tears, see no evil
Speak in tongues and hear you say, lovers leap
'cause there's no other way across waters deep
Feel the fire and the fool is learning
To run from the flames of bridges burning
And barb wired, last chance in the jungle trance
And the fast step of the monkey dance craze
War paint, misty days and dizzy faint
Keeping the faith, spinning turning
Watch the flames of bridges burning
Turning colors and shedding skin, shining brightly
Thick and thin, mirror of Gods, legend and myth
The fatal charm of the treasure, gift wrapped
And heaven sent, so trapped on islands of intent
Avenging angel of the wild and yearning
Stoke the flames of bridges burning
Burning me over, bridges burning
Burning, drives me wild, yearning for the small child
Blind men cry but shed no tears, see no evil
Speak in tongues and hear you say, lovers leap
'cause there's no other way across waters deep
Feel the fire and the fool is learning
To run from the flames of bridges burning

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
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,
Magical
Ed Sheeran
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
