Sky Division – “Waiting & Wading“, 2026 / Primitive Heart
…a young woman singing about how the distance may end her love, she’s happy but also hurting, both in her heart, her love is close and far apart, she’s afraid the other guys from the local bar (where she works) might change things, she’s afraid one night the little bar might catch her in its arms : )
Waiting & Wading (“Primitive Heart”) / Lyrics
Wipe my hands on this apron
Tips in a cloudy jar
You’re laughing through a tiny screen
Somewhere past the dark
Boot scuffs on these floorboards
Jukebox hums along
I carry drinks and hide my grin
You ask about my songs
I’m happy
I’m hurting
Both in the same small heart
You’re my here and my horizon
Close and far apart
I’m waiting
I’m wading
Through the noise and neon charms
Afraid one night this little bar
Might catch me in its arms
He leans across the counter
Says my name too slow
Leaves a folded napkin
With a number I don’t show
The regulars keep smiling
“Girl you got your pick”
I joke about the weather
Feel my throat go thick
I’m happy
I’m hurting
Both in the same small heart
You’re my here and my horizon
Close and far apart
I’m waiting
I’m wading
Through the stories and the smiles
Afraid one night this little bar
Might rewrite all our miles
If I slip
If I stumble
Would you feel it where you are
Every laugh
Every almost
Echoes longer than the bar
I’m happy
I’m hurting
Both in the same small heart
You’re my here and my horizon
Close and far apart
So I’ll wear this little promise
Like a ring you never gave
Till the day you push that door
Or the distance digs a grave
