This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
There's room at my table, why don't you pull up a seat?
The music's inviting but I'm staying off of my feet
The floor's getting crowded, but I don't want to take part
I bet you can guess it's got something to do with my heart
[Chorus:]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
The partners are chosen, look at them
Waltzing away
The tempo gets slower, closer and closer
They sway
I've had my moments when I could get lost in
The sound
But when the song ended the one in my arms
Let me down
[Chorus]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
Have you been in my shoes?
I search your eyes for signs
Will you remain, remember my name
After it's closing time
[Chorus]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
The music's inviting but I'm staying off of my feet
The floor's getting crowded, but I don't want to take part
I bet you can guess it's got something to do with my heart
[Chorus:]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
The partners are chosen, look at them
Waltzing away
The tempo gets slower, closer and closer
They sway
I've had my moments when I could get lost in
The sound
But when the song ended the one in my arms
Let me down
[Chorus]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
Have you been in my shoes?
I search your eyes for signs
Will you remain, remember my name
After it's closing time
[Chorus]
I could sure use your company now
But don't be mistaking my smile
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while
I'm only in between dances
Sitting it out for a while

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”

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,
