Long Time Waiting

Long Time Waiting - John Hardman Band

Sky spitting can’t decide what it wants to do
I wish it would just open up and pour down on me
At least to stop the wipers squeaking across the windshield
intermittent wipers keep streaking across the windshield

I’m driving in the dark 
away from my one time home
Wondering if and when
We will all be together again

And we can see that life is balanced
So precariously
And when it comes to tomorrows,
There is no guarantee

And sometimes from the edge
There is a beautiful, beautiful view
If the fear of falling 
doesn’t have to tight a hold on you

And sometimes from the edge
There is a beautiful, beautiful view
If the fear of falling 
doesn’t have to tight a hold on you

Lullaby

A jazz study in -plets that doubles as a bleak wide-angle shot of the artificial ways we humans divide ourselves.

So Down in Lisbon Town as I walk these streets tonight 
Graffiti on the Wall It’s a wake-up call, I’m so happy I can see the light 

But waiting here by the Ocean Pier
Night time is falling, my heart is calling
got your letter, feel the tremor

Half a million Souls in this land of old, sway to Fado in the air
Heading for Alfarma, I am Vasco Da Gama, just a lover without a care

But you’re not there in Rossio Square
Saint Jorge is smiling, Castello’s beguiling
Vasco Da Gama, he knows what I’m after

10,000 Miles just to see your smile, like a rider in the night
Lost and Found as I as I hit the ground, heaven knows I’ve got the right

And you’re not there in Rossio Square
Saint Jorge is smiling, Castello’s beguiling
Vasco Da Gama, he knows what I’m …tonight

Now I’m home but you’re not there
Your scent lingers in the air
Walls they whisper what’s been said
…and your there sleeping in our Bed!

So Down in Lisbon Town as I walk these streets tonight 
Graffiti on the Wall It’s a wake-up call, I’m so happy I can see the light 

As I lay down beside you and as   I close my eyes
Saint Jorge is smiling, Castello’s beguiling
And Vasco Da Gama, he’s got what he’s after…tonight

Oh, tell me, how did they die? Oh, how did they die?
Did you even try? Did you even try?
Me, oh my. What a lie!
How do you define? What did you say?
How did they play?
How'd they die that day?
Who came their way?
Who came their way
What did they say? How do you know?
Did they call you Will?
How did that feel?
Take all you will
How do you say?
Come up alive Come up on me
Life isn't Gray
How long will you stay?
How'd the kids play?
Where is the grave?
Where is the grave?
Eyes open wide.
Oh, how they lie.
Oh, how they die.
Oh, how they die.
Did you even try?
Did you even try?
All the lies!
All the lies!
Yeah that’s right
Without a sigh
Did anyone cry?
Did they cry?
Oh how did they die?
Oh oh, how did they die?
How did they die!
Oh how did they die!
Oh how did they die!

How?  (Beah X The Fall Of Saigon)

[Verse 1]
Wires hum in the dead of night,
Neon glow, just a satellite,
Fingers dancing, breaking locks,
Cracking codes on ticking clocks.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every firewall’s just a gate,
Every cipher spells their fate,
Shadow steps, I leave no trace,
I’m a phantom in this place.

[Chorus]
I’m a digital ghost, creeping in the stream,
Sifting through the codes, tearing at the seams.
Buried in the data, hidden in the dark,
I will find your secrets, rip them all apart.

[Verse 2]
Encrypted whispers, silent calls,
Buried files behind firewalls,
One wrong move, the alarms will scream,
But I’m already in your machine.

[Pre-Chorus]
Every password’s just a key,
Every secret’s calling me,
Shadow steps, I leave no trace,
I’m rewriting all your fate.

[Chorus]
I’m a digital ghost, creeping in the stream,
Sifting through the codes, tearing at the seams.
Buried in the data, hidden in the dark,
I will find your secrets, rip them all apart.

[Bridge]
Binary whispers, numbers collide,
Red lights flashing, no place to hide.
You built the walls, but I hold the key,
Now your empire belongs to me.

[Outro]
Delete your name, erase your past,
Ghost in the system, fading fast.
One last breach, and I’m long gone,
Your secrets burn before the dawn.

Wedding Day

Text:
[Spoken Intro – “Jim’s Awakening”]
Where am I?
The air smells like plastic, the lights don’t flicker — they hum.
Everyone’s eyes are glowing blue…
Did I die — or did the world?

I reach for a match,
but fire’s gone.
There’s only screens now…
and no one burns anymore.

(Soft electric guitar fades in…)

Verse 1:
I woke up in a world of glass and glow,
everyone’s face lit by a screen below.
No one talks, they just scroll and stare,
and I’m standing here — breathing air.

Chorus:
People are stranger now,
colder somehow.
Eyes wide shut in the digital crowd,
People are stranger now.

(solo)

Verse 2:
I walked past ghosts in mirrored halls,
reflections whisper from shopping malls.
I said, “Hey, I’m Jim…” but they laughed it away,
“Who’s Jim?” — “Just another yesterday.”

Spoken Bridge:
They used to sing my songs in firelight,
now their music comes from clouds.
No guitars, no pain, no soul,
just code and ads — too loud.

I met a boy with wires in his head,
he said, “Man, I don’t dream — I download instead.”

(solo)

Chorus (reprise):
People are stranger now,
don’t even know how.
Hearts on mute in a digital crowd,
People are stranger now.

Outro:
Maybe I’m the ghost that stayed too long,
in a world that forgot the song.

Stranger now... stranger now...
(echo fades into analog hiss…)
