about

Not a love song. I'm often amused by how when I set out in one direction--kind of went for an Esquivel, Space-Age Bachelor Pad vibe here--I end up somewhere else. Thanks to Kyle Williams for the fantastic vocal performance, and to the amazing Tony Kadleck for the horns/arrangement.

lyrics

Racing day again
Night at the opera with friends
Days that shine on your behalf
Brothers make you cry and laugh
Holding tight the wire
Stars appear you light the sacred fire

Whistle while you work
Stop and admire the brushwork
Sweet the taste and salt the sound
Spin around and around and around and around
Lean into the curve
Time to spend what you’ve kept in reserve

The moon it waxes and it wanes
The sun it shines before it rains
You’ll never see the light quite like this
Stand and sing the shadow’s roar
A creature waits behind the door
To kiss you

The wind she worries your hair
At your back she just might get you there
Rain might be just what you need
A field a flower a furrow gone to seed
Feel the elemental fire
Let your voice join the celestial choir

A waning crescent moon appears
She takes your part, she fans your fears
You’ve never seen light quite like this
Bow before the indifferent queen
This is act and this is the scene (when)
She’ll kiss you

…she’ll kiss you
…she’ll kiss you
…you’ll know this much is true
…you’ll pull through
