Ooh

Sometimes I slide away
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over and over

Take comfort in my skin
Endlessly
Surrender to my will
Forever and ever

I dissolve in trust
I will sing with joy (woo)
I will end up dust
I'm in heaven

Yeah

I stand in golden rays
Radiantly
I burn a fire of love
Over and over

Reflecting endless light
Relentlessly
I have embraced the flame
Forever and ever

I will scream The Word
Jump into the void
I will guide the world
Up to heaven

Yeah

I still love you
I still love you
Thank you

    My Interpretation

    I see this as a strongly motivated approach to love, in which the singer states that he will be feeling on top of the world, and having the need to lead his thoughts, and letting it show. The flaw in this is that he knows that many of his ambitions are those which he cannot control, and it may end catastrophically for him. Either way, he's met with a sense of pure feelgood; he's in heaven.

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,
