Under One Roof – Written Monday 18th June 2001 (Aged 26)

Under One Roof

there is you and there is truth
and there is,
a whole lot of lonely people
they are all under one roof
so bolt the stable door,
before it is too late
there is a chance,
and right now a dance
and there is,
a whole lot of lonely people
they are all under one roof
picking through the sawdust
and looking for clues
before the dove flies out,
and the raven flies in
there is you and there is truth
and a whole lot of lonely people
living under one roof




James Garratt – Monday 18th June 2001
