Longing for Longing
by @rshakesp
Liner Notes
Crazy little piano number today - number 6 in my '12 short nonsense songs about love' efforts - This one is about a young man turning his back on the quick fix and seeking something more substantial from love.
Lyrics
Its a quick hit
Endorphins for the modern man
But blink and you'll miss it
The downer was never in the plan
The box is so big
But hollow as a bell
The hunger is deep
But there’s nothing in the well
So he hunkers down
He looks hard at his past
He decides to discard the wrong things
And face up to his longing for longing

This is really good:
"The box is so big
But hollow as a bell
