You walk into this place.
The light shines on you're face, and I wish you were mine.
There used to be a time....
You aim a smile at me.
I can't even speak.
I'm too scared to try, just a waste of time.

Just a waste of time.

Tina you just act like you don't know the way I feel.
You call me back each night to reinsure my dream is real.
How long do you plan to keep on stringing me along?
I'm realizing I was wrong and you're just a waste of time.

Just a waste of time.

Look at what you've done to me! Tina!

All my friends are warning me, but I'm just way to blind to see.
I've just got to disagree.
I don't claim to know the way, but I'll snap out of it some day.
I don't claim to know the way.

I don't have the time to sit and wait, to sit and wait.
I don't have the time.
I'm losing my sanity!

Look at what you've done to me! Tina!

All my friends are warning me, but I'm just way to blind to see.
I've just got to disagree.
I don't claim to know the way, but I'll snap out of it some day.
I don't claim to know 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,

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/

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.
