Sail Yourself Downstream
sail yourself downstream
make yourself a cloud
and then, find a feeling
let yourself go
tell them that you are leaving
make yourself a future
now is the time to start living
i am in and out of their life
but never their feelings
sail yourself upstream
when the fight dictates
do not let your hope down
do not leave it to wait
drinking many cappuccinos
sat there, in coffee bars of fate
James Garratt - Wednesday 10th September 2008
