So there you are
With your suitcase
Shining star
Electric snowflakes
I'd like to take you
Far away
To another
Time and place

Now I've got the feeling once again
Tomorrow we'll be overground
Above the clouds
All around (x2)
And Mr. Sheen won't condescend
We're out of sight and out of sound
Above the ground
Lost and found
All around
Now we've got the feeling and they
Don't know what is real or in our heads
When the morning comes, without a sound
Then we'll fly away
Someone let me down
Someone led me 'round
Someone made me play

And there you are
In your dream world
Of planes and cars
In your machine modes
I've read your Shakespeare
I've seen your plays
There's another wine
Another taste

Go deep inside
And you won't need them
Anymore
Go deep inside
Just open up the door

And now he's got the feeling to the end
You know that we are overground
Lost and found
All around (x2)
And Mr. Sheen has made amends
He's out of sight and out of sound
Above the ground
Lost and found
All around
He's got the feeling and he
Knows just what is real - it's in his head
And when the morning comes, without a doubt
Someone let him in
Someone let him down
Someone let him look around, yeah
Someone let him look around to see
All the possibilities

And now he's got the feeling and he
Knows just what is real is in his head
And now he's coming out to play,
Says everyone can taste the day
He's got the feeling and then
No one reigns supreme over his head
And when the morning comes, we leave the crowd
Then we'll fly away
Tomorrow fly away, away
Away (x2)
Then we'll fly away (x2)
Oh ah (x2)

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,

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/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Page
Ed Sheeran
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.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
