This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.
Didn't really want to say good-bye
I was torn between love and pride
You kissed the child in me
Went and brought about a lady
Lovin' times always seen to change
I guess I'm a part to blame
We lost our eye to eye
Day and night I only cry
Well your pushing got the best of me
A time I'd thought I'd never leave
Lift the hands that had a hold on me
Now it's time to breathe
'Cause you meant the world to me
But I had other needs
To be the girl of someone's eye
And not a type that you could love and hide
'Cause you had to take control
So I just had to go
I'm sorry how it had to be
But you meant the world to me
The love you gave blinded me
So disguised I couldn't see
You eyes seemed so sincere
I didn't notice any trouble there
But you went and turned your love on me
Only wanted me lock and key
Didn't understand my thoughts and ways
Pretty soon you said I'd changed
You meant the world to me
You meant the world
People tell you stand by your man
If it's love through thick and thin
But you wouldn't go and let it be
So now it's time for me, yeah
I was torn between love and pride
You kissed the child in me
Went and brought about a lady
Lovin' times always seen to change
I guess I'm a part to blame
We lost our eye to eye
Day and night I only cry
Well your pushing got the best of me
A time I'd thought I'd never leave
Lift the hands that had a hold on me
Now it's time to breathe
'Cause you meant the world to me
But I had other needs
To be the girl of someone's eye
And not a type that you could love and hide
'Cause you had to take control
So I just had to go
I'm sorry how it had to be
But you meant the world to me
The love you gave blinded me
So disguised I couldn't see
You eyes seemed so sincere
I didn't notice any trouble there
But you went and turned your love on me
Only wanted me lock and key
Didn't understand my thoughts and ways
Pretty soon you said I'd changed
You meant the world to me
You meant the world
People tell you stand by your man
If it's love through thick and thin
But you wouldn't go and let it be
So now it's time for me, yeah

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”
Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
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'

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/

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.
