Finally, Tom Waits is back, singing: "It's time time time that you love..."
I've almost forgotten about that.
However, when listening to the song essential memories come back:
memories about sitting in the car after driving the two hours from Vienna back to my parents' house,
smoking a cigarette, listening to Tom Waits singing this song from my tape recorder and to the rain outside.
(Yes we used to smoke back then and we used to use tape recorders)
We didn't have smartphones, not even mobile phones. Ahhh.
When calling your girlfriend at night, you could easily get her annoyed parents on the line.
It's time time time...
... I leave the car, get my stuff from the boot and walk through the rain towards my parents' place.
It is 1994.
Time, time, time
