i prefere not to consider it as a sequel to the blower's daughter(even if it is)! the phrase ''til i find somebody new'' is an optimistic tone in a depressive song! he can't take his eyes of her but who knows what time will bring? it's a phrase which connects our present to our future and it's a brilliant way for ending a song like that; leaving questions without answers! so, what's the point in telling us if he was wrong or not since, when we ourselves sing it, we've not learnt it yet...
