This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
One more hour burns
So scared of his return
That I can't sleep tonight
In this hospital light
What you call tragedy
Is just another day to me
For my heart beats with fear
As his footsteps draw near
The life I'm meant to lead
Won't slip away from me
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, and as I bleed
You just say you're sorry, you call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time
There's nothing left of this
Your whispered words and empty threats rip away at the seams
Of what I thought this would be
The last threat has come undone
To reveal what I've become
Another victim of a poisoned love
I've been afraid for years
But that won't keep me here
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, to just say you're sorry
You call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time
And what remains a mystery
You cannot have the best of me
So I'm taking back all you took from me
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, to just say you're sorry
You call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time
So scared of his return
That I can't sleep tonight
In this hospital light
What you call tragedy
Is just another day to me
For my heart beats with fear
As his footsteps draw near
The life I'm meant to lead
Won't slip away from me
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, and as I bleed
You just say you're sorry, you call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time
There's nothing left of this
Your whispered words and empty threats rip away at the seams
Of what I thought this would be
The last threat has come undone
To reveal what I've become
Another victim of a poisoned love
I've been afraid for years
But that won't keep me here
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, to just say you're sorry
You call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time
And what remains a mystery
You cannot have the best of me
So I'm taking back all you took from me
'Cause this time's the last time
I know that my eyes have seen too much
This nightmare is not fair
And I've had enough (and I've had enough)
You break me, to just say you're sorry
You call this love
But this time your lies are not enough (are not enough)
This time

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

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'

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/

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
