about

This song was partly written several years ago and was always meant to accompany the first song. The lyrics really tell the story in response to "Brighter Bigger", and for anyone familiar with the movie, it will make a lot of sense.

This song is from Bob's point of view.

lyrics

I woke up in a neon storm
Feels a lot like a dream to me
I could be doing a play somewhere
But I sold out to a Japanese whiskey

I turned around and there you were
Like an angel from another world
You brought me back from my reverie
I knew right then I had discovered
A hidden pearl

By the way, I’ve been meaning to tell you
What you really want to hear
It’s a secret I’ve been holding for you dear
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you need to hear

You let me into your circle of friends
We karaoked till the morning light
Pink hair and a longing stare
I never wanted you to leave my sight

A week later it’s time to go
You made your way out of the hotel
I came after you as soon as I could
It was hopeless I was under
Your spell

By the way, I’ve been meaning to tell you
What you really want to hear
It’s a secret I’ve been holding for you dear
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you need to hear
I’m a sucker for those other worldly eyes
When the timing is right
I will tell you what you have to hear

Let’s never lose the feeling
Of that warm embrace
We gotta find a way to
Get back to that place

I will tell you now
I will tell you now
I will tell you now
I will tell you now
