(25th August 2012 Gregorian)
I was sitting at the back of the van
Thinking about you and me
About how I love to have you around
And how we both love to be free
Can we love us just the way that we are
With all our peculiarities?
And keep our cosmic connection alive
Whenever we're close, and feeling the most
Connected that we have ever been
But how patient do you want me to be?
How patient do you want me to be?
'Cause I could love you at a quarter to two
And again at a quarter to three!
But it's been so many days
And now you're going away from me
When you get back, more than a month
Since we had that intimacy
Way too long since the feeling inside
Since we got it on, instead of singing a song
I wanna feel your legs wrapped 'round of me
But how patient do you want me to be?
How patient do you want me to be?
I understand there are things from the past
That don't wanna let us be free
But we know if we don't take it too fast
We can get to that place called ecstasy
Now we've been there do we wanna go back
To places we've already been?
All we need is a little relax
I can do it for you, and you for me too
In that moment of spontaneity
But how patient do you want me to be?
How patient do you want me to be?
How patient do you want me to be?
But while you're away know that whatever I say
I'm waiting here patiently...
How Patient? A lot!
The church in Olot, Catalunya (complete, like all churches, with phallic symbol) behind which this song was written
This one is very much in the style of early Beatles, boy/girl, young love kinda stuff
The boy is obviously totally into his girl having recently 'hooked up' with her for the first time and he wants more!
But she's keeping him keen and making him wait and is probably not at all impressed with (or maybe secretly smiling at) his needy Please. But you know what guys can get like when they're 'on the hook'. She's about to leave for a few weeks and he's going to have to wait at least until she Gets Back. So This Boy has come up with a tongue in cheek song which he hopes will woo her... (I don't reckon he's got a hope with this, but he's going to enjoy playing it anyway!)
I wrote this one whilst sitting at the back of my van, parked at the back of the above church in Olot in Catalunya. It was stinking hot being at the height of summer, and so a real, real test of patience, waiting for my beloved to return. How Patient did I have to be? A Lot! (#pundemic) (Oh yeah and she didn't like the song at all, ha ha)
