The port of love was in the future
Around the corner, and over the hill
The act of love was slowly pounding, slowly pounding, slowly pounding...
The Holy War was slowly building
And we're all sqeezing from the plane cruisin'
Seek reward in the ever after, ever after, ever after...
Don't want to leave you baby
Don't wanna act like that
Don't wanna ever hurt you baby, treat you bad...yeah...
You know I'll always help you baby
I travel, I put you back
You know I'll always help you baby, here's my blood, call me sometime...
Act of love (4x)
Did I keep you at the demonstration
With your friends, fucked up all their days
A friend at heart, and then we'll stay here...
Swingin' after, but your friends knew...
The fruit of love is in the future
Around the corner and over the hills
The act of love is slowly poundin', slowly poundin', slowly poundin'...
Act of love (8x)
Around the corner, and over the hill
The act of love was slowly pounding, slowly pounding, slowly pounding...
The Holy War was slowly building
And we're all sqeezing from the plane cruisin'
Seek reward in the ever after, ever after, ever after...
Don't want to leave you baby
Don't wanna act like that
Don't wanna ever hurt you baby, treat you bad...yeah...
You know I'll always help you baby
I travel, I put you back
You know I'll always help you baby, here's my blood, call me sometime...
Act of love (4x)
Did I keep you at the demonstration
With your friends, fucked up all their days
A friend at heart, and then we'll stay here...
Swingin' after, but your friends knew...
The fruit of love is in the future
Around the corner and over the hills
The act of love is slowly poundin', slowly poundin', slowly poundin'...
Act of love (8x)

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,
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
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
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.
actually, this song is mislabelled, it is a Neil Young song.
adam - it is a Neil Young original, but if you compare the lyrics, it looks like PJ's version was changed up a bit. I've been lucky enough to see PJ play this song live twice, including once with Neil in Toledo and the most recent time they played it in DC. <br /> <br /> I think they've played it a total of 8 times in the 15 years since they collaborated with Neil on this version.
@adam1986 i think u must be right. the line about the "demonstration" is definitely from his generation. i was in grade school when "heart of gold" and "old man" had airplay. if u can find his album" tonite's the night" i think that would inspire u to love his older music. dolly parton had a hit with one of his songs in the 70's and he even put out a country album in the late 80's which i still have on cassette if u love rock then you've got to give him credit he's been going since the 60's in canada.
