Nobody’s baby now
I’ve searched the holy books
I tried to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ, the saviour
I’ve read the poets and the analysts
Searched through the books on human behaviour
I travelled this world around
For an answer that refused to be found
I don’t know why and I don’t know how
But she’s nobody’s baby now
I loved her then and I guess I love her still
Hers is the face I see when a certain mood moves in
She lives in my blood and skin
Her wild feral stare, her dark hair
Her winter lips as cold as stone
Yeah, I was her man
But there are some things love won’t allow
I held her hand but I don’t hold it now
I don’t know why and I don’t know how
But she’s nobody’s baby now…

Beautiful image, very spectral. And I’m also a big fan of Nick Cave.
Thanks Stevie… And Cave is… a great poet.
Too clever your descriptive heading “Nobody’s baby now”… this image working “MAGIC” accompanying your subject matter perfectly.
Thanks again Ivy!
