Maybe (We Won’t Wait So Long)

He said,
I’m a broken motion sensor.
She said,
I still wanna see you dance.
They agree,
the texture of commitment grows like tree bark
wrapped around romance.
Maybe they won’t wait so long.

He said,
I’m a broken-hearted lover.
She said,
Look me in the eyes.
They agree,
We’ll hide away ‘til everybody goes home;
‘til everybody dies.
Maybe we won’t wait so long.
We will wait for you.

Play cat and mouse.
Placate your nervousness
by watching while the hands caress the face.
Hour hands.
Second hands.

Maybe we won’t wait too long.
I will wait for you.

about

Composer/singer/multi-instrumentalist David Garland has been steadily shaping songs in new ways since ... more 1980.

"Like many great songwriters before him, Garland pushes the limits of acceptable harmony and dissonance, yet never at the expense of beauty. If it's not possible for popular music to reach the heights of the great classical masters, it seems no one has told David Garland."
--Sean Lennon less
