Florence — A Love Song for Florence from Dombey and Son
Destiny, babe, left you
forlorn, sad,
and despondent.
Your lonesome heart
never had a vent.
I was there,
but you were never
ready, babe,
to make choices
for your chaotic mind
made noises.
Destiny, babe, left you
melancholic.
Once, you were so
crestfallen and weak.
Babe, the town is
too lonesome to not
desert you;
Babe, it’s you
to heal your wound
and woe.
I saw you there, sobbing,
for all your misgiving
that made miserable
your living.
But you never
ceased to love;
your heart tender
and sweet.
The wounds never
made you cold;
unlike broken souls
aplenty
that are sold.
Destiny left you
weeping and forlorn;
but you kept loving,
You are one-off, babe.
In the world of
wild horses,
you’re a unicorn.
