Default

go and find someone
who loves the way your hair grows
and doesn’t ask but just knows
how your feeling

go and find someone
who knows just how to hurt you
abandon and desert you
believing in his virtue

and go and find someone
who likes Bob Dylan
And Leonard Cohen
and late mornings

then go and find someone
affected anti-bourgeois
driving round inside an old car
getting drunk and smoking gauloise

and take your patchwork quilt
your finest threads of silk
and all your tangled up emotions
and your semi crazy notions
and drink them with this wine
we haven’t got much time
then rise up with the sun
and go and find someone

go and find someone
to hold your hand through danger
then be the perfect stranger
when you wake up in the morning

go and find someone
to write you long love letters
and wear your ripped green sweaters
to warm him through the winters

go and find someone
to hold your many babies
your caravan of gypsies
bathed and baptised in the ganges


go and find someone
who’ll make you whisper soft and slow
Until you come like the winter snow
Crying in a blizzard

go and find someone
who’ll drink beer with the sunset
a Darwin harbour confidant
A fragile drifting dreamer

and take your patchwork quilt
and your finest threads of silk
and all your tangled up emotions
and your semi-crazy notions
and drink them with this wine
we haven’t got much time
rise up with the sun
and go and someone

and take your burnished dreams
you’re purest golden seams
cast them to the sunsets
hide them in your daughter’s pockets
and remember just one thing
we never shared a ring
this love is still undone
but go and find someone
