'Tongue' by REM was playing in the kitchen
Holding back my thirst for Francophile suggestions
I'm never going to make it happen
I'm always going to get you answering
Recalling over wine how your grandma was a hippie
The small hand turns round twice and everyone gets tipsy
You're never going to see me dancing
I'm never going to let it happen
And what was different when I came round two days later?
A bliss extinguished with a word
I almost dropped my plate escaping to the bedroom
I didn't eat till the next day
Walking by the burn, we stopped to feed Delilah
First time in this wind-cursed town I've not felt an outsider
I never thought that it could happen
You're always going to find me lagging
And what was different when we met up two weeks later?
A bliss rekindled with a word
I almost dropped my phone encapturing the memories
A portrait looking far away
Recorded on an iPhone, the four tracks on the new EP from Kiara NGL burst with both big feelings and gentle melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 19, 2022
