Like Rogers needed Hammerstein and John needed Taupin, Bowen needs you! Words need music, so I’m going to post some words each week that are begging to be completed by your music. Contact me at pam@bowen2.com if the Muse sends you a melody for this lyric. I think this one could be a pop or rock song, not the usual country.
FIND IT
© 2011 Pam Bowen
Verse 1:
It can’t have gone too far.
Where’d you see it last?
Type it in the search bar.
Is it in the trash?
KEEP ON LOOKING
YOU CAN FIND IT
THE UNIVERSE IS
MISALIGNED IF
YOU CAN’T FIND IT.
Verse 2:
Under that paper pile
In the dirty clothes
Behind your plastic smile
Right under your nose.
Verse 3:
In a place you forgot
Stored with the reindeer
In an unlikely spot
In the disclaimer.
CHORUS
Verse 4:
Beneath a cabbage leaf
Under your thick skin
Down between the car seats
With your mortal sins.
Verse 5:
In the back of a drawer
Tucked neatly away
In your mother’s memoir
In your DNA.
CHORUS
Bridge:
You’ll find it if you’ve got the nerve
While you’re here on earth
In the next where you’re not blinded
I bet you’ll find it.
CHORUS
