The Hands of Love

Fire and foam
Finally home
Tonight the rain abides
I’ll cling to you
The whole night through
Like a polar bear to ice
Aubergine
Before the sea
Another good boy finds you
Salted toes
Queen of the dogs
How the mud imbibes you
And if Paolo comes around he can have you
I wrote with my pen
It was different then
Care home boy for late stage amnesiacs
My set is long
With just one song
It’s I see you I sing when I do
And if Paolo comes around he can have you
I heard your line
It’s been on my mind
But it srves both sides when I com to justify
Your father’s gone
I’m sorry son
It’s going to happen to everyone
And if Paolo comes around he can have you
To be redeemed at the hands of love
To love and love and never give enough
I honour the ghosts by keeping in love
To love and love and never love enough
