If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never, no never, let go

[Chorus]
I like the way you dance, I like the way you paint your lips
And if I had a chance, to be with you, I wouldn't slip
So hey what do you say, just see a thing or two in me
Then let's be on our way, we don't need no other company

If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never, no never, let go

Well we don't need no wine, and we don't need no other stuff
'Cause we'll be doing fine, from being close and tastin' love
So when the night set ends, we'll close the curtains way uptight
And then will just pretend, that it isn't day, but still the night

If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never, no never, let go

There's a fire burnin' deep down in your eyes
It's got me almost hypnotized

I like the way you dance, I like the way you paint your lips
And if I had a chance, to be with you, I wouldn't slip
So when the Night set ends, we'll close the curtains way uptight
And then will just pretend, that it isn't day, but still the night

If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never let go
If I can Hold you tonight, I might never, no never, let go

I might never, no never, let go
I might never, no never, let go
I might never, no never, let go

Dreamwalker
Silent Planet
I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.

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,

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
