Searching for a pretty bottle Filled with good wine Not to be an antidote to hormones Just for some peace of mind Could one of you ladies be so kind As to show me a sign? I been searching And it's harder than I thought to find Tell you the truth it’s getting on my nerves I'm writing this to unwind Could one of you ladies be so kind As to show me a sign? I've checked into heartbreak hotel Searching through its empty corridors Looking everywhere I could Without going on all fours Could one of you ladies be so kind As to show me a sign? Love has to be blind Love has to be deaf I get love notes But never of the right clef Could one of you ladies be so kind As to show me a sign? And I could be here pessimistic Making you feel pain Writing about standing at the top of a bridge alone My soul being chiseled away by the pouring rain Nobody to save me Just standing there in the dark Listening to the traffic below Reminiscing about days at the park Nobody bothering to find me Just standing there trying to figure out life Wondering if some are destined to be alone While others are pronounced man and wife But I don't, I just keep searching, And staying away from dark rainy bridges of course Just asking one question and searching So could one of you ladies be so kind As to show me a sign?

your writing to unwind within this poem, makes me think of Proverbs 31 in bible, The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.
