My love,
wherever you are,
whoever you are,
don’t lose faith:
I know it’s gonna happen—
someday—
to you.
Please wait!
Wait…
Don’t lose faith…
You say that the day
just never arrives,
and it’s never seemed so
far away—
still,
I know it’s gonna happen
someday
to you.
Please wait—
don’t lose faith…
—“I Know It’s Gonna Happen Someday,” lyrics by Morrissey; music by Alain Whyte. Off the brilliant, and sadly maligned release, Your Arsenal, produced by the late, great Mick Ronson, 1992.
I finally finished reading Saint Morrissey, and it has brought home to me this point: I’ve never, never outgrown or gotten over my adoration for Steven Patrick Morrissey. Every time I’ve thought I could walk away, somehow, I get drawn in.
