you and i
are one and two
if you kill
we were both torn in two
you and i
are one and two
both our hearts
beat as one, dear
and you
but is it okay
is it okay
if i run away
it is okay
when your love has faded away
if i hold you tight and never let go
if i hold you tight and never let show
the way i feel
all around me
i know it's you

you and i
are hopeless too
if i give you all my heart could
and i'm true
all my life i waited for
and there's nothing left
no there's no-one else
to live for
any more
but is it okay
is it okay
if i
i can escape
your faith
will need just one more longer
day
aaaah
aaaah
aaah
if i hold you tight and never let go
if i hold you tight and never let show
the way i feel deep inside of me
i swear it's you
if i hold you tight and never let go
if i hold you tight and never let go
if i hold you tight and never let go
if i hold you in my arms
forever
all around me
all around me
and i swear it's you

    OMG OMG first post! I got Jame's solo album after thinking one day that he only sang on nine Pumpkins songs out of all the albums they made. But it was after hearing Believe from Judas O that I wanted more James Iha. This song sounds a little like Believe or The Bells. This is a great love song about never wanting to "never let go" of that special person.

    "if i give you all my heart could and i'm true all my life i waited for and there's nothing left no there's no-one else to live for"

    Beautiful songwriting and a beautiful voice = great music for late nights

The Night We Met
Lord Huron
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"

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,

Blue
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
