Cast Adrift – Written April 1999 (Aged 24)

Cast Adrift

could you bring me home
i looked at you
and you looked a little sad
you know,
i do not want to be alone
bring me home
but not in your carrier bags

waiting by the telephone
it is true,
on their promises,
i have nearly choked
but i do not want to be alone
and i am afraid that i am still broke
it is just a short term solution
what i need, is a long term answer

could you bring me home
i do not want to be alone
and your face, it is like the pearls
that people find in the sea
your friendship is kinship
and is means so much to me
i do not want to be alone
cast adrift on some endless sea




James Garratt – April 1999
