Lyrics:
Waiting for May to come
Hoping for the rain
A memory held too long
Just another day
Oh what it could be
Oh what a dream to me
Memory burned and gone
A multicolored grey
Waiting for May to come
Happy for the rain

Today was an unforgettable milestone for my girlfriend and me. We saw the ultrasound of our baby for the first time, witnessed that precious heartbeat flicker on the screen. It's incredible how life unfolds. This song (and this video) and the timing feels like it was made for this moment, perfectly encapsulating the joy and wonder we're feeling right now. 💖👶

[@fuzzy8593]

Congratulations :)

[@Owl_81]

I had only just smoked one of Jamaicas finest Bob Marleys, I lays back on my bed and sees Khurangbins' new track available for play, so I presses play and I was instantly captivated, and by the end of this beautiful piece, I had streams of water and a rather large wet patch on my chest/heart area from where all the tears had been embracing one another - I don't cry that often so when I do, I really do cry. It's amazing what a bands music can do to you and you don't even realise it until it has happened. I really do love this band!!!! They are one of life's greatest gifts. One love from the UK x

[@Wiki_Beats]

'Tears had been embracing one another' Are you like, a poet or summin?

I don't claim to be anything, I just say what I feel and think at that very moment :)

I found Khraungbin in 2019 after a tornado had destroyed my house. I was in a temporary home and the pandemic eas full on. I had ordered some pre-amp tubes for my Soldano Hot Rod 50..the tubes were wrapped in a newspaper article on Khraungbin. After reading the article i immediately ordered "The Universe Smiles Upon You."

[@TroyWarr1980]

That's some real serendipity! Makes me wonder if the person who sent them to you knew exactly what they were doing

[@garythomas4431]

​@TroyWarr1980 That is cool. And another thing was the preamp tubes came from Texas. The Khru always bring something unique for us. I'm learning this song on my guitar. It's actually quite a challenge, and I've been playing over four decades. I love comping Mark's style. So unconventional. No shred...but brilliant use of the pentatonic vibe
