about
This is an old tune that never got released. Needed some work, a telecaster (thanks SJ) and a little vocal jiggery DL4 pokery at the end.
lyrics
Am I wearing out my welcome?
Have I said too much,
Been hanging round for far too long?
Is my presence not here wanted?
Should I leave before the water freezes round our friendship?
The stillness freezes me,
There’s a knife that can be used to cut this subtle tension.
There is loneliness in love,
And a part of that is knowing when to start the arguments.
And I’m asking for your patience,
I am asking for a little bit of your time.
I am asking for your conversation,
And I’m wondering about that silly look,
That you carry with you everywhere you go.
Harmony illusion,
Fear in love but love is dear,
I’d not buy a single moment,
But all you can do is calculate the cost of hoping.
And I’m asking for your patience,
I am asking for a little bit of your time.
I am asking for your conversation,
And I’m wondering about that silly look,
That you carry with you everywhere you go.
Beyond the door,
Is the fight you’re looking for.
I need you more,
Than I’ve ever done before.
Have I said too much,
Been hanging round for far too long?
Is my presence not here wanted?
Should I leave before the water freezes round our friendship?
The stillness freezes me,
There’s a knife that can be used to cut this subtle tension.
There is loneliness in love,
And a part of that is knowing when to start the arguments.
And I’m asking for your patience,
I am asking for a little bit of your time.
I am asking for your conversation,
And I’m wondering about that silly look,
That you carry with you everywhere you go.
Harmony illusion,
Fear in love but love is dear,
I’d not buy a single moment,
But all you can do is calculate the cost of hoping.
And I’m asking for your patience,
I am asking for a little bit of your time.
I am asking for your conversation,
And I’m wondering about that silly look,
That you carry with you everywhere you go.
Beyond the door,
Is the fight you’re looking for.
I need you more,
Than I’ve ever done before.

by The Reflection BoxIrish singer-songwriter Sarah E. Cullen bares her heart over pastoral folk arrangements enshrouded in a dream-pop haze.

Erudite chamber pop that hearkens back to the elegant and experimental production of the 1960s, swinging from melancholia to playfulness.
