10.15 - Bob Geldof

Jeanne saved my soul

Again last night

She bathed me in love

She told me I was beautiful

And I made her come a lot

She made me special perfumed tea

Went and bought patisserie

Put on music — Bob Marley

Lay me back

And fed me

She read a poem by Baudelaire

Sitting naked in a chair

Her perfume filled the holy air

And eased my tired heart

She lit a fire later on

Put her bra and panties on

I watched her as her beauty shone

And filled my empty soul

And though I did my best and tried

Sadness claimed me and I cried

She wiped the wetness from my eyes

Being kind

She said she didn’t mind

She drew a bath and washed me clean

Then kneeling took me by degrees

She held me till I went to sleep

Then put me on the 10:15

God you work in wondrous ways

Bless this girl for all her days

And when I’m old and tired and grey

I’ll think of this day

Smiling
