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”
This is where my story begins
No one knows where it ends
The world's devastated by Sin
Journey on to Zanarkand
I'm your guardian 'til the end
That means wherever you go I will follow
When we get through this mess
We will get out once more
Over the Moonflow
This is where my story begins
No one knows where it ends
The world's devastated by Sin
Journey on to Zanarkand
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
There has to be another way
This isn't worth the cost
But you can't stop
This sent our fathers to the grave
This has gone far enough
I won't give up
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
I'm your guardian
I'm your guardian 'til the end
I'm your guardian 'til the end
'Til the end
This is where my story began
And this is where it will end
Now that the world is free from Sin
I'll meet you all on Zanarkand
No one knows where it ends
The world's devastated by Sin
Journey on to Zanarkand
I'm your guardian 'til the end
That means wherever you go I will follow
When we get through this mess
We will get out once more
Over the Moonflow
This is where my story begins
No one knows where it ends
The world's devastated by Sin
Journey on to Zanarkand
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
There has to be another way
This isn't worth the cost
But you can't stop
This sent our fathers to the grave
This has gone far enough
I won't give up
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
This is our last chance
This is our last chance
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
We'll never forget
I'm your guardian
I'm your guardian 'til the end
I'm your guardian 'til the end
'Til the end
This is where my story began
And this is where it will end
Now that the world is free from Sin
I'll meet you all on Zanarkand

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,
Punchline

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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
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.
Page

Ed Sheeran
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.
It's Final Fantasy X, written from Tidus's perspective. That's all there is to it.
