This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
And it begins, I toss and turn
But things can't be much worse
Hurry up and wait, this convoluted state,
Induced by you, and the loaded things you say
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
The siren sings, to pull you in
as things are wearing thin
The time it takes, before you break,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Fate
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You gotta take you're time with things like these
all that you want is someone to ask for apologies
for things that don't exist, they just don't make sense
So much pretense
April 5th, I arise with chapped lips
And the babbling of nonsense over the TV's dull hiss
The events of April 4th align just a little more
Than the infatuated roar of the kids across the street
Though they speak not to me, they go deeper than my worry
With a friend of a friend who at a bar last night told me that they loved me
But it must've been the Bacardi that had her hanging off me,
Saying things she didn't mean, but her words still haunt me!
But things can't be much worse
Hurry up and wait, this convoluted state,
Induced by you, and the loaded things you say
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
The siren sings, to pull you in
as things are wearing thin
The time it takes, before you break,
Let me introduce myself, my name is Fate
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You're gonna miss, gonna miss, gonna miss me someday
You gotta take you're time with things like these
all that you want is someone to ask for apologies
for things that don't exist, they just don't make sense
So much pretense
April 5th, I arise with chapped lips
And the babbling of nonsense over the TV's dull hiss
The events of April 4th align just a little more
Than the infatuated roar of the kids across the street
Though they speak not to me, they go deeper than my worry
With a friend of a friend who at a bar last night told me that they loved me
But it must've been the Bacardi that had her hanging off me,
Saying things she didn't mean, but her words still haunt me!

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”
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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
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.
But it must have been the bacardi that had her hanging off of me/Saying things she didn't mean/
can't figure out the last line.
