Friends say that I better be cool
They say I'm playing the fool
But they don't know what they're talking about
I've got to jump, I've got to scream and shout

Mama said I was a really bad boy
Sis is crying 'cause I've broken her toys
Papa's shouting that I really gotta go
But where I'm going I just don't know

In her eyes
The sun is beginning to rise
In her eyes
I feel myself coming alive
In her eyes
The blood is beginning to flow
In her eyes
I know that I'm ready to go

I'm running but I don't know where
I'm trying but I really don't care
Papa told me that I better watch out
But Papa doesn't know what he's talking about

Mama said I was a really bad boy
Sis is crying 'cause I've broken her toys
Papa's shouting that I really gotta go
But where I'm going I just don't know

In her eyes
The sun is beginning to rise
In her eyes
I feel myself coming alive
In her eyes
The blood is beginning to flow
In her eyes
I know that I'm ready to go
Let's go

In her eyes
In her eyes
In her eyes
In her eyes
In her eyes
In her eyes

In her eyes
The blood is beginning to flow
In her eyes
I know that I'm ready to go
In her eyes
The sun is beginning to rise
In her eyes
I feel myself coming alive

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,

Magical
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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

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.
