Isn't it funny how the roads just pass us by
Isn't it crazy how we never get it right
Time is wasted on money and money wasted on lust
Treat her like a lady and she'll never get enough

'Cause it's you that I'm running to baby
It's you that I'm feeling for lately and
It's like a pain that never goes away
And it always starts today

'Cause you are home to me, cause you are home to me
'Cause you are home to me, cause you are home to me

It's it perfect how the memories feel the same
Isn't it amazing how the song remains unchanged
Time is wasted on money and money wasted on lust
Treat her like a lady and she'll never get enough

    also, i think with the sort of melancholy, wistful music- "treat her like a lady and she'll never get enough" may be kind of said in a cynical sort of way. We all know that women often will eat up drama, bad treatment and even abuse. Treat her well all the time, she gets bored. This is a source of angst for a man with a good heart. Theres no "happily ever after" with this reality of life. Good writing on this song.

Little Feat
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”

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,

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
