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”
Writing sleeper hits for all these weeping dip shits
Turning tricks for cheap kicks where I can
I turn 'em with my whole damn body
She told her friends she'd got with me, she lied it drunkenly
I'm only angry 'cause I wish she had
I wish it with my whole damn body
50,000 cotton wool balls line your whole bedroom floor
Soaked in black tears from your mascara, resemble piles of coal
We'll stack them up high and lie by fireside, to the morning from the night
Led on an ex-boyfriend's corpse
I slit from gullet to balls and splayed his face to the floor
She crows "You want my happiness, but on your terms"
And I know you're just a foot up out of the doldrums
All the finger sucking, singer fucking girls
Are making me wake up in these cold sweats
I sweat it from my whole damn body
Swapping drinks tickets for all these indiscreet snippets
Of how it feels to truly be adored
I feel it in my whole damn body
Blue blood, red carpet burns and the white of your home counties skin
Daddy's a patriot, enjoyed this summer a lot, but hide your jubilee knees
Me, half hard, from what I dreamt
Pressed in the corner of your bed recollecting what we did
Taxi cab to Travelodge he drops me off outside the lobby
Lowers his wink like guillotine
Invite in for coffee when the night ends
We get Head like Nescafé gold blend
Big tip for the pretty girl waiting the IHOP
These blank napkins/unwritten suicide notes
It's dark inside these eyelids, blacker than the ink (squid)
Turning tricks for cheap kicks where I can
I turn 'em with my whole damn body
She told her friends she'd got with me, she lied it drunkenly
I'm only angry 'cause I wish she had
I wish it with my whole damn body
50,000 cotton wool balls line your whole bedroom floor
Soaked in black tears from your mascara, resemble piles of coal
We'll stack them up high and lie by fireside, to the morning from the night
Led on an ex-boyfriend's corpse
I slit from gullet to balls and splayed his face to the floor
She crows "You want my happiness, but on your terms"
And I know you're just a foot up out of the doldrums
All the finger sucking, singer fucking girls
Are making me wake up in these cold sweats
I sweat it from my whole damn body
Swapping drinks tickets for all these indiscreet snippets
Of how it feels to truly be adored
I feel it in my whole damn body
Blue blood, red carpet burns and the white of your home counties skin
Daddy's a patriot, enjoyed this summer a lot, but hide your jubilee knees
Me, half hard, from what I dreamt
Pressed in the corner of your bed recollecting what we did
Taxi cab to Travelodge he drops me off outside the lobby
Lowers his wink like guillotine
Invite in for coffee when the night ends
We get Head like Nescafé gold blend
Big tip for the pretty girl waiting the IHOP
These blank napkins/unwritten suicide notes
It's dark inside these eyelids, blacker than the ink (squid)

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

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.
