This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
(Okay)
Don't have to write me a letter
'Cause I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear
We love every hair on your head
Love you like God loves you
And you say that you're scared
My bae, I'm prepared for having the baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
You name your babe Lilac Heaven
After your iPhone 11
"Crypto forever" screams your stupid boyfriend
Fuck you, Kevin
We love every freckle you have
We love you like God loves you
If you're ever stressed out, just dance in the night
If you get those baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
Pink slippers all on the floor and
Woven nets over the door
It's as close as we'll get to the dream that they had
In the one night sixties
And Jason is out in the lawn
And he powerwashes every time things go wrong
If you're stressed out just know you can dance to your song
'Cause we got you
If you get the blues
Baby blues
Just know this is your song
It'll live on and on way past me and you
If you get the blues
Baby blues
You've got us, we've got you
So there's nothing to lose, and we love you
So don't write me a letter
I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear
Don't have to write me a letter
'Cause I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear
We love every hair on your head
Love you like God loves you
And you say that you're scared
My bae, I'm prepared for having the baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
You name your babe Lilac Heaven
After your iPhone 11
"Crypto forever" screams your stupid boyfriend
Fuck you, Kevin
We love every freckle you have
We love you like God loves you
If you're ever stressed out, just dance in the night
If you get those baby blues
Baby blues
Baby blues
If things ever go wrong
Just know this is your song and we love you
Pink slippers all on the floor and
Woven nets over the door
It's as close as we'll get to the dream that they had
In the one night sixties
And Jason is out in the lawn
And he powerwashes every time things go wrong
If you're stressed out just know you can dance to your song
'Cause we got you
If you get the blues
Baby blues
Just know this is your song
It'll live on and on way past me and you
If you get the blues
Baby blues
You've got us, we've got you
So there's nothing to lose, and we love you
So don't write me a letter
I'll always be right here
Closer to you than your next breath, my dear

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,

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.
