Each time that I hold you close, here in my arms
I'm building heartaches
Each time that I kiss your lips, so sweet and warm
I'm building heartaches

And when you say you love me
We both know it's a lie
An' just a dream from which I must awake

That each sweet word you tell me
Is a heartache in disguise
So I'm building heartaches

When people ask me what I'm doin', here's what I tell
I'm building heartaches
And each kiss you give me is a tear that hasn't fell
So I'm building heartaches

And when you say you love me
We both know it's a lie
An' just a dream from which I must awake

And each sweet word you tell me
Is a heartache in disguise
So I'm building heartaches

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,

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.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
