“In a little while
This hurt will hurt no more
I'll be home, love!
When the night takes a deep breath
And the daylight has no air
If I crawl, if I come crawling home
Will you be there
In a little while
I won't be blown by every breeze
Friday night running
To Sunday on my knees”
From In A Little While by Brian Houston (originally U2)
You can still see the little bits of debris from Bono’s original Gospel intentions for this song, that in the end might seem to be a love song. Some write God songs that could be about love. U2 do the opposite! This was the song Joey Ramone played endlessly when he passing away from cancer. Brian Houston’s new cover on his Raw Sessions album gives it a poignant Gospel lament feel. You can see why Houstton would be drawn to the song. Not only does he share Bono's faith hope but he too is still married to his childhood sweetheart. In a little while indeed...
