Managed to climb out of the doldrums of life and write my first song in about 10 months.
It's a little bit ambiguous and written after a slight argument on Facebook. Not the best place to have one.
I will catch up on your latest posts asap. In the meantime, please have a listen.

V1
How do you know it's a rainbow
if you can see the end?
How do you know? How do you know?
I've seen the "Wizard" three times
but it still don't make no sense.
So how do you know? How do you know?
Brain, heart and courage?
That part I comprehend,
but how do you know a rainbow at it's end?
V2
How do you know you've seen a ghost
if a ghost doesn't exist?
How do you know? How do you know?
I've seen some apparitions
and some I may have kissed
But, how do you know? How do you know?
There's wailing from the graveyard
and there's shadows in the mist.
So, how do you know it's not a ghost you could
have missed?
Inst.
V3
How do you know an angel
if you can't see any wings?
How do you know? How do you know?
How long is a story
How long is a piece of string?
How do you know? How do you know?
How do you know it's our song;
the one Whats-His-Name sings
and how do you know it's me when your telephone rings?
V4
And how do you know it's time for bed
when you can't see the time?
How do you know? How do you know?
How do you know it's poetry
if nothing in it rhymes?
How do you know? How do you know?
How do I know you love me
when you don't give me a sign?
How do I know you'll love me for a while?
