Delays - Long Time Coming/You and Me


Artist: Delays
Song: Long Time Coming
Album: Faded Seaside Glamour
Year: 2004


“Tore it up and walked away, why'd you wanna go do that for? Threw your Lego in the lake, why'd you wanna go do that for?”

“How can you grow old you were my triumph?”


*A REMARK AND QUOTE: You have got to thank my indecision today because now you’ll get to listen two songs.

The first one is about, and I’m quoting the author of the song here, “watching people you love losing their innocence and naivety that you shared when you were younger and fallen into the kind of adulthood you swore you never would, and wishing you could've done something about it. It's a loss of innocence and also of spontaneity and people becoming really guarded and jaded. Friends stuck in jobs you know they don't wanna do, living in houses they don't wanna live in…”




Artist: Delays
Song: You and Me
Album: You See Colours
Year: 2006


“To the bitter end I have fought alone, now this cavalry is coming home…”

“And we can lay low tonight and we can set the flag alight, we're clawing back the time when youth was on our side, you and me could've been fine... you and me were gonna be fine…”



*ANOTHER REMARK, NO QUOTE: I’m not quite sure what this is about… the most likely thing is that it is about this couple that like each other and at some point of the relationship (if there ever was one) they got apart from each other for a long period of time and now time has passed and somehow they are reunited again, I guess that if something's meant to be will occur no matter what...
