I know your kind
I've seen that smile
I won't let you come back

But you know
Just how to make my world fall back
Just how to make my world turn black

I cannot breath
My mind is blank
You're laughing when I cry

Why did you bring
My happiness so deep inside
My happiness there just to die

Just how to make my world fall back
Just how to make my world turn black
On sunless days we're side by side

Sunless days
Sunless days
My emotional decay

You're hiding now
I'll cut you out
My sky will gather clouds

Where can I go
I try to hide but can not find
I try to leave all things behind

My happiness so deep inside
My happiness there just to die
'Cause on sunless days we're side by side

Sunless days
Sunless days
My emotional decay

I try to hide but can not find
I try to leave all things behind
'Cause on sunless days we're side by side

Sunless days
Sunless days
My emotional decay

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,
