WILL YOU WAIT?

from THE STORY SO FAR​.​.​. by Jack Howard

about

Originally released on My Lucky Day in 2007. Nicky Del Rey on guitar, Barry Stockley on bass, Ed Bates - pedal steel, Sharky Ramos - drums, Russ Davis - French horn, Dan Hall - b'v's. A love gone right song and one of my best lyrics, I think. Nice lifting chorus and brass bridge.

lyrics

Supple as anger, tender as steel
Your back is the bridge that will help me to heal
Out there is the darkness, out there is the night
In here I am gone when we turn out the light

Kiss me in comfort, kiss me in fear
Kiss me in joy cos I think this real
Open your eyes and I'll open mine too
You only live once

Will you wait for the oceans to part?
Will you wait?

Blind to the danger, deaf to the gun
Dumb enough to look straight into the sun
Feeling like death, now I feel like a life
Anything goes, the temptation is rife

Love really hurts, love is in the air
Love is a many-splendoured affair
The cliches abound so just open your eyes
You only live once

Will you wait, etc.
