This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
oh my baby
yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
little baby it's no lie
without you i'd surely die
they don't know but i can see
they try to take you away from me
but they don't know what i'd do
i've been a lonely man for you
blindfolds that they put on me
make them think that i can't see
all the tricks they try to do
just to keep me away from you
let them let them think they can
'cause i'm just a little man
but they don't know what i'd do
i've been a lonely man for you
what can i say
if you go away?
and some wish
that you would
but they don't do me no good
what can i do
baby without you?
bullet, bomb
gun or knife
to keep you in my life
good lord, it's a dreadful sin
kind of world i'm living in
papers don't tell me no news
make the choices i should choose
first they say that we are free
self-contained in apathy
good lord is technology
tries to take you away from me
what could i do
baby without you?
bullet, bomb
gun or knife
just to keep you in my life
what could i say
with you gone away?
and some wish
that you would
but they don't do me no good
oh baby
lordy knows that yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
good lord knows that yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
i've been a lonely
i've been a lonely
i've been a lonely man for you
so lonely
so lonely
i've been so lonely
i've been a lonely man for you
i've been a lonely
man for you
yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
little baby it's no lie
without you i'd surely die
they don't know but i can see
they try to take you away from me
but they don't know what i'd do
i've been a lonely man for you
blindfolds that they put on me
make them think that i can't see
all the tricks they try to do
just to keep me away from you
let them let them think they can
'cause i'm just a little man
but they don't know what i'd do
i've been a lonely man for you
what can i say
if you go away?
and some wish
that you would
but they don't do me no good
what can i do
baby without you?
bullet, bomb
gun or knife
to keep you in my life
good lord, it's a dreadful sin
kind of world i'm living in
papers don't tell me no news
make the choices i should choose
first they say that we are free
self-contained in apathy
good lord is technology
tries to take you away from me
what could i do
baby without you?
bullet, bomb
gun or knife
just to keep you in my life
what could i say
with you gone away?
and some wish
that you would
but they don't do me no good
oh baby
lordy knows that yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
good lord knows that yes it's true
i've been a lonely man for you
i've been a lonely
i've been a lonely
i've been a lonely man for you
so lonely
so lonely
i've been so lonely
i've been a lonely man for you
i've been a lonely
man for you

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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,
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Vic says this one is about public cameras in NYC, and not about a lover. I guess he's lonely for his freedom and ready to do anything to get it back. Also, not sure what it means, but the backwards message sounds like "Joke for schoolboy, dead for dropout". Maybe a reference to the politician who put the cameras up? Not sure.
I found this: theblacklistpub.ning.com/profiles/blogs/divdiva-1 Charles H. Ramsey was a huge proponent of security surveillance and a 2X drop out.
Oh crap, wrong guy. Sorry Henry!
