  • Limited Edition Polaroid Collage with Compact Disc.
    Poster/Print

    To prepare for the album release, we took a series of Polaroid portraits of Joy & Gordon at their home, in front of Joy's amazing painting. Shot by David McCarty on rare and out of print Polaroid 600 film, and hand-lettered, there is only one of these unique artifacts.

    If you purchase this special package, you get the custom CD plus this two-Polaroid collage. You will also receive a handwritten lyric sheet from Joy, plus a selection of Delicate Cycle fliers from years past. Basically it's the GRAND PRIZE of Delicate Cycle memories.

    This version of the collage didn't make the final cut of the album--we used a slightly different incarnation. Rest assured that you will be getting a unique piece of art that helped support the Delicate Cycle's music.

lyrics

We are the great love song of the river and the sea,
We are the biology of the flower and the seed,
And if you ever want to know how much you mean to me,
Ask I’ll tell you right away, no fingers crossed until my dying day.

You wrote your phone number down, and then you drew a map
In my Graham Greene paperback. (What Graham Greene paperback?)
It was The End of the Affair, it was The End of the Affair,
It was the end of all my sleepless nights,
wrapping myself tight to keep from dying.
