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.
See, first of all
I know these so-called players wouldn't tell you this
But I'ma be real and say what's on my heart
Let's take this chance and make this love feel relevant
Didn't you know I loved you from the start, yeah
When I think about all these years we put in this relationship
Who knew we'd make it this far?
When I think about where we would I be if we were to just fall apart
And I just can't stand the thought of leavin' you
Meet me at the altar in your white dress
We ain't gettin' no younger, we might as well do it (we ain't gettin' no younger, girl)
Been feelin' you all the while, girl, I must confess (feelin' you all the while)
Girl, let's just get married
I just wanna get married
Meet me at the altar in your white dress
We ain't gettin' no younger, we might as well do it (so might as well do it, yeah)
Been feelin' you all the while, girl, I must confess (and I must confess)
Let's just get married (baby, lets get married)
Said I done it all
But frankly, girl, I'm tired of this emptiness
I wanna come home to you and only you
'Cause makin' love to just anyone ain't happenin'
I just gotta be with you
Do you think about us finishin' somethin' we started so long ago?
I wanna give you my all
Do you think about maybe us havin' some babies?
Come on won't you be my lady forever, girl
I'm ready to commit to you
And I just can't wait for that night
'Cause I need you here with me
And let's start a family, oh-woah
Meet me at the altar in your white dress
We ain't gettin' no younger, we might as well do it (we might as well do it)
Been feelin' you all the while, girl, I must confess
Girl, let's just get married
I just wanna get married
Meet me at the altar in your white dress (oh, oh-oh, oh)
We ain't gettin' no younger, we might as well do it (we ain't gettin' no younger, hey)
Been feelin' you all the while, girl, I must confess (married, married, married, married)
Let's just get married (all I want you to do is meet me at the altar, hey)
Meet me at the altar in your white dress

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.
American Town
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.

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.
