So you say you're alone!
Well I don't think so...
Yeahhh!!

And so the saying goes, "we've been expecting you"
Please tell me where do I begin?
And I would like to know if you saw me trying
Pausing, pressed and making all this scarce
Every flower will unfold
But you'd rather let them writher than to keep a vigil over them all

So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
I don't think so
And take this moment now
(No i don't)
So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
Every time, this might as well just burn

I can say with the greatest of ease that you won't be missed
Once i swore by the gods you could save me
Slow down you're not making any sense
Weren't you the one who was always right?
Kneel down and show you're penitent
Weren't you about to say you were right?
Don't remind me!

So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
I don't think so
And take this moment now
(No i don't)
So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
Every time, this might as well just burn

Well it burns
Well it burns
It burns!
Well it burns
Well it burns
It burns!

So you say...
So you say...
Every time, this might as well just burn

So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
I don't think so
And take this moment now
(No i don't)
So you say you're alone?
(So you say you're alone?)
Every time, this might as well just burn

Well it burns
Well it burns
It burns!
Well it burns
Well it burns
It burns!




**The 'well it burns' bit I'm not too sure on but I think its close.

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,

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.

Blue
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.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
