This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Way down
I've been way down
Underneath this skin
Waiting to hear my name again
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
If I hear them calling
And nothing can hold me
Way down (Do you really want me?)
All the way down (Do you really want me?)
I will hear your voice (Do you really want me?)
But I'll no longer understand (No one's really loved me)
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
But I hear them calling
I was looking to the sky
When I knew I'd be swimming home
And I cannot betray my kind
They are here, it's my time
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me (Do you really want me?)
I adore you still
But I hear them calling, (calling)
And nothing can hold me
I've been way down
Underneath this skin
Waiting to hear my name again
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
If I hear them calling
And nothing can hold me
Way down (Do you really want me?)
All the way down (Do you really want me?)
I will hear your voice (Do you really want me?)
But I'll no longer understand (No one's really loved me)
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
But I hear them calling
I was looking to the sky
When I knew I'd be swimming home
And I cannot betray my kind
They are here, it's my time
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me (Do you really want me?)
I adore you still
But I hear them calling, (calling)
And nothing can hold me

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,

This is a sequel to 2001's "Reckless Abandon", and features the band looking back on their clumsy youth fondly.
Magical

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.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
Why do people post leaked lyrics? They're hardly ever completely correct. -_-
The lyrics as indicated in the album jacket are:
Way down, I've been way down underneath this skin waiting to hear my name again
I'm sorry nothing can hold me I adore you still but I hear them calling and nothing can hold me
Way down, all the way down I will hear your voice but I'll no longer understand
I'm sorry nothing can hold me I adore you still but I hear them calling
I was looking to the sky when I knew I'd be swimming home and I cannot betray my kind They are here it's my time
I'm sorry nothing can hold me I adore you still but I hear them calling and nothing can hold me
