This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
I listen for your footsteps
Coming up the drive
Listen for your footsteps
But they don't arrive
Waiting for your knock, dear
On my old front door
I don't hear it,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
I hear the clock a'ticking
On the mantel shelf
See the hands a'moving
But I'm by myself
I wonder where you are tonight
And why I'm by myself
I don't see you
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry
I'm sorry that I doubted you
I was so unfair
You were in a car crash
And you lost your hair
You said that you would be late
About an hour or two
I said, "That's alright, I'm waiting here
Just waiting to hear from you"
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry
Coming up the drive
Listen for your footsteps
But they don't arrive
Waiting for your knock, dear
On my old front door
I don't hear it,
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
I hear the clock a'ticking
On the mantel shelf
See the hands a'moving
But I'm by myself
I wonder where you are tonight
And why I'm by myself
I don't see you
Does it mean you don't love me anymore?
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry
I'm sorry that I doubted you
I was so unfair
You were in a car crash
And you lost your hair
You said that you would be late
About an hour or two
I said, "That's alright, I'm waiting here
Just waiting to hear from you"
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry, don't make me blue
'Cause you know darling, I love only you
You'll never know it hurt me so
I hate to see you go
Don't pass me by, don't make me cry

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
Gentle Hour

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,
I Can't Go To Sleep

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
paul doesnt live hes is infact dead and very much so but anywho this is by far the best starky song ever he wasnt a great singer/ songwriter but he sure can whale on the drums so yea paul was decapatated buddy and if you have anymore questions about the beatles be happy to im me on aim hawkisgay56238
I find it very cute that you are so convinced that Paul died and Ringo wrote this about him. (Did you do a little too much tripping back in the day, mate?) I've watched all of the Paul is dead documentaries and read so many articles about it, because it fascinates me that people would actually believe this to be true. It is conceivable that he could have died in a car crash like it was reported. It's also possible that he could have been replaced by the guy who won the Paul McCartney look alike contest the year before his supposed death. But it's implausible to think that they could have found someone with the same degree of talent that Paul had and also look almost identical to him. The entire thing is very interesting, but it's very much a fantasy. It's not reality.<br /> <br /> What I find really amusing, though, is the fact that all the "Paul is dead" conspiracy theorists don't realize that The Beatles weren't giving off signs in their songs, album covers, etc..., that Paul was dead. I think they found it absolutely maddening (in jest) that people would go to such lengths to align everything they said or did to them sending signals to their audience that Paul was actually.<br /> <br /> The Beatles were all known for being merry pranksters. I think they did feed into the entire conspiracy theory in a joking manner for their own enjoyment, just to see how far people would take it. They were quite clever and cheeky like that. The mere fact that it's still being talked about over forty years later shows just how brilliant they really were.
