04 Counting Hours
angie fights crime
from the album “ZERO”
featuring Meg Radley with Tess Savigear on vocals
tic, of the clock marches forward
wait, for the bell to chime noon
patience, I can’t tell when it’s coming
think, that it has to be soon
wasting all my time counting hours
rather be drifting out to the sea
or gathering moss in a field full of flowers
time won’t wait
so i’d better get going
sound, shuffling feet march along
weight, of the world sinking down
patience, softly singing the words of a song
all hope, lies in this truth
wasting time in a line going nowhere fast
refuse to be trapped like a rat on a sinking ship
if there comes a choice between this life or the one in my dreams
i will fly like a butterfly
across the warm summer breeze
i will run to the forest
and live there among the trees
i will never look up on the wall at the clock
and wonder what if…
God its good. It's Alex. I'm locked out of alone tone! Harmonies amazing!
Megs voice is a real find for me. Absolutely love the tone.. And this song really really suits it. Hope to hear lots more of this voice. Got bits of nico.. I think that's what I pick up. So beautiful set against teases voice. Such a beautiful song Brent. Incredible
My fave song on the album - love it. Was a pleasure to add b-vox. Meg needs to record more. Classy songwriting, Brent.
