I remember summer,
1993 she was tall and blond and tan
And man she was all in love with me
She started talkin' about our future
And it scared me half to death
So I ran away
But to this day
Her memory takes my breathe
Should of seen her smile
Should of heard her laugh
And oh the way her eyes would dance
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
She could've of been mine
She would've of been in another place and time
But now and then, I go there in my mind
Wish it would of been
She should've been
She could've been, mine
Home for the holidays
A friends party, new years eve
I turned around and found a familiar
Blue eye starring back at me
A little girl came running up
I took her bay the hand
A memory in miniature said, "Mommy who's that man"
Should've seen her little smile
Should've heard her little laugh
Oh the way her eyes just danced
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
Mine, in another place and time
Mine, mine, mine, mine
1993 she was tall and blond and tan
And man she was all in love with me
She started talkin' about our future
And it scared me half to death
So I ran away
But to this day
Her memory takes my breathe
Should of seen her smile
Should of heard her laugh
And oh the way her eyes would dance
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
She could've of been mine
She would've of been in another place and time
But now and then, I go there in my mind
Wish it would of been
She should've been
She could've been, mine
Home for the holidays
A friends party, new years eve
I turned around and found a familiar
Blue eye starring back at me
A little girl came running up
I took her bay the hand
A memory in miniature said, "Mommy who's that man"
Should've seen her little smile
Should've heard her little laugh
Oh the way her eyes just danced
When she brushed her hair back
[Chorus]
Mine, in another place and time
Mine, mine, mine, mine

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”

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,
Just A Little Lovin'

I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

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.
