I put my little girl to bed
With teardrops in her eyes
All day I've tried to comfort her
And louder were her cries
I left her there to say her
Prayers and stepped outside the door
The prayer I heard was one I
Knew I'd never heard before

Please have my mommy ask my
Daddy to come home
Sometimes I'll cry and get my
Way and mommy's so alonе
She told me once that whеn I'm
Right I never should give in
So if at first I don't
Succeed I'll cry cry again

I know our little girl is right
And we're both in the wrong
And so I've called you up tonight
To ask you please come home
I can't go on or stand for
Long the way she cries today
And I can't go to sleep at
Night because I heard her pray

Please have my mommy ask my
Daddy to come home
Sometimes I'll cry and get my
Way and mommy's so alone
She told me once that when I'm
Right I never should give in
So if at first I don't
Succeed I'll cry cry again

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.

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.
