This is a hauntingly beautiful song about introspection, specifically about looking back at a relationship that started bad and ended so poorly, that the narrator wants to go back to the very beginning and tell himself to not even travel down that road. I believe that the relationship started poorly because of the lines:
"Take me back to the night we met:When the night was full of terrors: And your eyes were filled with tears: When you had not touched me yet"
So, the first night was not a great start, but the narrator pursued the relationship and eventually both overcame the rough start to fall in love with each other:
"I had all and then most of you"
Like many relationships that turn sour, it was not a quick decline, but a gradual one where the narrator and their partner fall out of love and gradually grow apart
"Some and now none of you"
Losing someone who was once everything in your world, who you could confide in, tell your secrets to, share all the most intimate parts of your life, to being strangers with that person is probably one of the most painful experiences a person can go through. So Painful, the narrator wants to go back in time and tell himself to not even pursue the relationship.
This was the perfect song for "13 Reasons Why"
Mucho gusto me llamo bradley I'm hornier than Ron Jeremy
And if you wanna get popped in your knee
Just wipe that look off your bati face
You hate me 'cause I got what you need
A pretty little daughter that we call mexi
If you wanna get beat physically, it will be over in a minute if ya
So she told me to come over and I took that trip
And then she pulled out my mushroom tip
And when it came out it went drip drip drip
I didn't know she had that gi joe kung-fu grip
And it went uuh, and the girl carresed me down, uhh, and thats that loving sound
When I kiss mexi it makes me feel horny
Cause i'm the type of lover with the sensitivity
When she kiss my neck and tickle me fancy
She give me the right kind of love on Sunday morning
En otro lado es donde viví con mijita que se llama mexi
Y su hermana si me quiere
Y ahorita tenemos un bebé
Sus padres sus padres me trataron matar
But they did not get to far
Un poco después tuve que regresar
Con un chingo de dinero 'cause you know I'm a star
Yo fui a costa rica para tomar y sufear
Practicaba con la raza 'cause they know who we are
Sí no me dió cuenta than I bet you never will
You must be a muñeca if you're still standing still
And it went uuh, and the girl carresed me down, uhh, and thats that loving sound
Me gusta mi reggae
Me gusta punk rock
Pero la cosa que me gusta más es panochita
Pon la nalga en el aire if you know who you are
Pon el nalga en el aire empieza gritar
No tenga miedo I'm your papí
Take your chones y los manden a mí
Levanta levanta tienes que gritar
Levanta levanta tienes que bailar
And it went uuh, and the girl carresed me down, uhh, and thats that loving sound
And if you wanna get popped in your knee
Just wipe that look off your bati face
You hate me 'cause I got what you need
A pretty little daughter that we call mexi
If you wanna get beat physically, it will be over in a minute if ya
So she told me to come over and I took that trip
And then she pulled out my mushroom tip
And when it came out it went drip drip drip
I didn't know she had that gi joe kung-fu grip
And it went uuh, and the girl carresed me down, uhh, and thats that loving sound
When I kiss mexi it makes me feel horny
Cause i'm the type of lover with the sensitivity
When she kiss my neck and tickle me fancy
She give me the right kind of love on Sunday morning
En otro lado es donde viví con mijita que se llama mexi
Y su hermana si me quiere
Y ahorita tenemos un bebé
Sus padres sus padres me trataron matar

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,

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
