It Will Be - Mighty Mighty Bosstones

It Will Be - Mighty Mighty Bosstones
3:22
Pin Points and Gin Joints, 2009
Written by Dicky Barrett and Joe Gittleman

This song is a note of commiseration to a heartbroken friend.  Hope is gone, words were said that can't be taken back, the whole universe is dismal now, all the usual scenes.  But the narrator assures us that love will come again if you wait patiently.  "It will be when you least expect it / Electricity and then / Wait and see, it'll be electric again."  I do prefer my Bosstones to be more frenetic and guttural, but the more restrained vibe here fits the message.
