When Will We Love Again

Written by S. Nicks

 I've waited so long
Now I can breathe
And you've waited, too
You've waited, waited for me

When shall we love?
When shall we love?
When will the hour be?
Today, tonight, now?
When will you come to me?
When shall we love?

And he never doubted me
No, how he did trust
Now maybe someday because of me
He'll learn not to trust so much
When he does love again
It can't be me again

And now you are here
Blue eyes, your smile and your golden ring
A portrait I painted in fear
Shining like a light made out of crystal

When shall we love?
Tonight, tonight?
When shall we love?
Shine on like a light
When shall we love?
From sundown to sundown
All the barriers have burned down

Yes, from midnight to morning
As a poet loves poetry
And this has been my story, yeah
Tonight, tonight
And this has been my story, yeah

WEBMISTRESS speculates:

This song has been called a Fritz demo, but when Javier Pacheco (the keyboardist for Fritz) was asked about it in an interview, he stated that the band had never played such a song. So, apparently, it isn't from that time period, although when you listen to this you can hear people playing pool in the background, which might lead one to believe it is indeed very early. At any rate, this song is a nice little ditty about lost love found again. The wedding ring part reminds me of Rose Garden, another song she wrote when she was very young. I guess back then she still considered marriage as the final destination of true love, still thought that one day her blue-eyed man would bring her a golden ring.
