Marianne Faithfull
Good Guy
(Bert's Blues)

I've been looking for a good guy
For a long, long time
Been looking for a good guy
One to ease my mind
As well as my time

I've been singing in the evening
Flying through the night
But I hurt my good guy
I hope he makes out right
Flying through the night

I've been picking up the sunshine
Been drinking down the rain
I've been picking up the sunshine
It makes me wonder when
I'll see him again

You know time could bring a change, man
It ain't for me to say
You'll soon be out of range, man
This could only be the way
It's meant to be
Fairy castle stark and black in the moonlight
The jingle jangle jester rides his stallion
Seagulls fly across my mind forever
Sadly goes the wind on it's way to Hades
Would I, should I, could I be a stranger ?
I shall walk right by and sigh good-bye

I've been looking for a good guy
For a long, long time
Been looking for a good guy
One to blow my mind
As well as my time

I've been looking, you know I've been looking
You better believe I've been looking
I've been picking up the sunshine
I've been drinking down the rain
I've been thinking of the sunshine
I've been looking for a good guy
One to ease my mind
As well as my time

Blow my mind
As well as my time
Blow my mind ...
