lyrics

No Delays (for Josephine)

High truth has known no equal
Outside this darkened door
Love has given me life
And all now that remains is this dappled sea
Loose and uncreative it’s a part of me
It breathes in one time and I breathe it out
No delays
by my account

Don’t hold on so tight
Knee-worn, knee-worn behind the light
How little it takes to say more
With the calmness of the waves breaking on the beach
Tireless and plain they’re a part of me
Late moonlight on the boards, feel the church bells ring
Comin home
Like they’re comin home to me

And it’s kinda like
I’m steppin out in old New York
Kinda like
Screamin my lover’s name and he runs to the call
Kinda like
Knowin that my will won’t break
No delays
Or words caught by the wind

And it’s kinda like
I’m steppin out in old New York
Kinda like
Screamin my lover’s name and he runs to the call
Kinda like
Knowin that my will won’t break
No delays
Or words caught by the wind

HESS New York, New York

HESS (of NYC rock & roll powerhouse Mail the Horse) was born in the same town as Springsteen, Long Branch, NJ, and with Lamplight Motel, has crafted a fully-realized portrait of life and death on the New Jersey coast—equally beautiful, seedy, and forlorn—all built upon dreamy layers of warm, vintage synthesizers, punchy electronic percussion and soulful, R&B-inspired vocals. ... more
