about

Inspired by social distancing due to COVID-19.

lyrics

The truth of the fact is
I tune into your live streams
Because I miss the sound of your voice
The little pauses that you take
The little murmurs that you make
That very very particular noise

And I don’t know what happens next
Or happens next after the next
But when all the next’s are through

I am gonna hug you
So hard when I see you again
We’ll go to that museum that we keep talking about
We’ll go everywhere we wanted, there can be no doubt
So please please please just wait until then

The truth of the fact is
I tune into your live streams
Because I miss the smile on your face
The crinkles right around your eyes
Your brows raised in a mock surprise
I miss coming over to your place

And I wish I knew what happens next
Or happens next after the next
But when all the next’s are through

I am gonna hug you
So hard when I see you again
We’ll watch that stupid movie over glasses of wine
Non-alcoholic choices would also be fine
So please please please just wait until then

The truth of the fact is
I haven’t called you yet
Because I’m scared that makes this distance real
How can I get on the phone
And tell you that you’re not alone
When alone is all that I feel

I’m scared of what’s gonna happen next
Or however many nexts come after next
And I have no idea what to do
Except say that when all of this is through

I am gonna hug you
So hard when I see you again
Whatever happens next the only thing I know
I’ll wrap my arms around you and I’m never letting go
I show you all the love I’m always too scared to show
So please please please wait until then
