This moment's passing breeze
Feels like your tender breath
I used to know so well
The silence is crushing
The white noise that used to call my name
Break down and all my thoughts have escaped me
Except for all the things that show me your face
Ever so brightly
Poised through a lie that still remains
Such little left
That I can say
With authenticity
So I

Close my eyes
And I can hear you calling
From behind
Close my eyes
I swear I feel you crawling
Towards the light
Tell me the words that will keep you close

Poor soul, heart full, temperature fluctuates
To later be buried in my own
Personal graveyard
Of emotion and past mistakes

Close my eyes
And I can hear you calling
From behind
Close my eyes
I swear I feel you crawling
Towards the light
My skin is turning white
Watching your soul in flight
Close my eyes
I swear I feel you crawling
Towards the light

The bloody beat, beat, beat in my chest
The coldest chill creeping up my neck
Tell me the words
That will keep you close

Life won't feel the same anymore
'Cause you're gone, and it's far too late to say
The things I'm sorry for

Five fingers gripping the glass
For the last time I'd hope to say
Three nights with no separation
I know too well there's one more thing I could have said

Life won't feel the same anymore
'Cause you're gone, and it's far too late to say
The things I'm sorry for

I can't take it back, I can't bring you back

Life won't feel the same anymore
'Cause you're gone
And I'm holding on

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,

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
