And I'll be here forever
Or until I just die
And I'll see the concrete river
Like the one I can't cry
And I'll search for a reason
the whole world loves to lie
And I'll hope the tide is turning
for my sweet baby rye

And you know, and you know I'll swear this
We'll have community one day
Build a family out of strangers down the way
Build a family out of strangers down the way

We will learn from each other
As we build something pure
We'll teach each other to live
Learn the meaning of secure
This is the end of servitude
We will learn to sweep our own floors
Teach each other to love
We need no less, no more
We need no less, no more

And you know, and you know I'll swear this
We'll have community one day
Build a family out of strangers down the way
Build a family out of strangers down the way

And you know, and you know I'll swear this
We'll have community one day
Build a family out of strangers down the way
Build a family out of strangers down the way

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.
