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”
It hurts when I breathe
It hurts when I speak
You want everything I own
Everything you wanted
I keep running away, running away, running away
You keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends in the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised that next time
These blue eyes came out of the blue
Out of the blue, blue, blue
It never gets old
It never changes
Does it
Airport to city
The moment is breaking my promise
So I keep drifting away, drifting away, drifting away
And you keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised the next time
But these blue eyes came out of the blue
Blue, blue, blue
It hurts when I breath
It hurts when I speak
Still want it
Everything I own
Everything you wanted
I keep running away, running away, running away
You keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised the next time
But these blue eyes
It always ends in the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
But these blue eyes came out of the blue
Out of the blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue
It hurts when I speak
You want everything I own
Everything you wanted
I keep running away, running away, running away
You keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends in the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised that next time
These blue eyes came out of the blue
Out of the blue, blue, blue
It never gets old
It never changes
Does it
Airport to city
The moment is breaking my promise
So I keep drifting away, drifting away, drifting away
And you keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised the next time
But these blue eyes came out of the blue
Blue, blue, blue
It hurts when I breath
It hurts when I speak
Still want it
Everything I own
Everything you wanted
I keep running away, running away, running away
You keep fading away, fading away, fading away
It always ends the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
I won't be surprised the next time
But these blue eyes
It always ends in the same way
The sun gets in your eyes
But these blue eyes came out of the blue
Out of the blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue

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
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
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.
Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
