This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee
And I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now, still need help somehow
Not for myself but for a world, a world in need
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And every man would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never ever, ever end
This is my grown up Christmas list
My Christmas list
As children we believe
The grandest sight we'd see
Was something pretty
Wrapped beneath the tree
And heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Could never, ever, ever heal
A human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal, heal
All broken hearts
Every, everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up Christmas list
What is this illusion
Called the innocence of youth
Maybe in our blind belief
We can only find the truth
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
Time, time would heal
All broken hearts
Everyone would have a friend
And love would never end
And right would always win
This is my grown up Christmas list
This is my lifelong wish
This is my grown up Christmas list
My grown up Christmas list
I wish I found a [Incomprehensible]
And I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now, still need help somehow
Not for myself but for a world, a world in need
No more lives torn apart
And wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And every man would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never ever, ever end
This is my grown up Christmas list
My Christmas list
As children we believe
The grandest sight we'd see
Was something pretty
Wrapped beneath the tree
And heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Could never, ever, ever heal
A human soul
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal, heal
All broken hearts
Every, everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown up Christmas list
What is this illusion
Called the innocence of youth
Maybe in our blind belief
We can only find the truth
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
Time, time would heal
All broken hearts
Everyone would have a friend
And love would never end
And right would always win
This is my grown up Christmas list
This is my lifelong wish
This is my grown up Christmas list
My grown up Christmas list
I wish I found a [Incomprehensible]

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.

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'
Dusty Springfield

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.
