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”
The ultimate pleasure's givin' pleasure
Yeah, I'm a Taurus
They say that we're patient lovers
But you're Aries
Are you a Scorpio, you're Cancer or Capricorn?
Or a cusp? Cool
If you should feel thirsty
I'll be sure to bring you water
Yes, girl, I got candles
That will slow burn longer
And I know your favorite love song
And how you like it on repeat
Me, I was born a patient lover
So I'll start with your feet
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
I'll do my best to inspire you
To dream of us till we meet again
You may even be encouraged
To take a walk so we can love again
The most high outdid herself
When she created you
And girl, I am thankful
For how our love has bloomed
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
Picture us makin' love
Picture us makin' love
Picture us makin' love
Baby, close your eyes
Picture
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life into our love
Yeah, I'm a Taurus
They say that we're patient lovers
But you're Aries
Are you a Scorpio, you're Cancer or Capricorn?
Or a cusp? Cool
If you should feel thirsty
I'll be sure to bring you water
Yes, girl, I got candles

@[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.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Definitely a patient lover!!
