Let's spend the day in bed, yeah, that's what I said
Let's lie down, draw the shades
Ditch the plans we made
Rest your lovely bones and just stay home

Turn off the telephone, picnic on the sheets
Toss the dogs some treats, rub each other?s feet
We're not ashamed of a little lazy love
Till we're through, I'm gonna spend the day in bed with you

let's spend the day in bed on our very own bed spread
A pajama holiday
Catch a black and white matinée
Spoon feed these new daydreams and just stay home

We?ll read Shel Silverstein, 'Where The Sidewalk Ends'
Smile about old friends, try to comprehend
One single day, no work and only play
Kick off your shoes, I'm gonna spend the day in bed with you

Life?s a drag, we?ll get stoned on love
Stoned on love, just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love

We need a groove that's all our own and we?ll get stoned
Just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love

Till we're through, I'm gonna spend the day in bed with you

let's spend the day in bed, forget all that I said
We?ll eat your favorite pie, ice cream on the side
Lie here a la mode and just stay home
Just stay home, just stay home

When life?s a drag, we?ll get stoned on love
Stoned on love, just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love

We need a groove that's all our own and we?ll get stoned
Just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love

When life?s a drag, we?ll get stoned on love
Stoned on love, just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love

We need a groove that's all our own and we?ll get stoned
Just stay home
We?ll get stoned on love, stoned on love
Just stay home

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

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/

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
