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”
We can be strong
We can be strong
Out on this lonely road
It's on the road to love
We can be strong

With blond hair and a gun
Smoking under her toes

I'm on whoa, oh oh whoa
I'm on the road to love
She's just an American
Riding a dream
When she's got a rainbow syrup
And her heart that she bleeds
They don't care if your papers
Or your love is the law
She's a, free soul, burning roads
With a flag in her bra
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ride, ride, pony, ride, ride
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm on whoa, oh oh whoa
I'm on the road to love
Get your hot rods ready to rumble
'Cause we're gonna fall in love tonight
Get your hot rods ready to rumble
Cause we're gonna drink until we die
Get your hot rods ready to rumble
'Cause we're gonna fall in love tonight
Get your hot rods ready to rumble
Cause we're gonna drink until we die

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

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
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
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.
i think (even though gaga said it was about herslef being free), i also think it's about being gay. where she says, "we can be strong," meaning that even though it's hard, you can still be strong. where she says, "she's got a rainbow syrup in her heart that she bleeds," has to do with rainbow flags, and her bleeding it is showing it (maybe painfully), and when she says, "she don't care if your paper or your love is the law," is about a gay woman not caring about gay marriage being illegal, that she's still going to express her feelings. where she says, "with a flag in her bra," i think it's the rainbow flag.
