about

For many years Stew was a bookseller at Waterstones Picadilly Circus and he befriended a woman he perceived to be homeless, she loved books and was a fascinating character. We could all be in her shoes - having been told that his own grandfather died homeless, the plight of those that live outside of society has always struck a personal chord with Stew.

lyrics

Oh Louise
By S Simpson

She walked through the shop
With a handful of hope
A pocket full of change
And a mind full of dope
Lank hair, pale skin and in need of my time

It’s all I can give
One second of my mind
London’s cold
But you’ll be fine
You’ll find peace on the Picadilly line tonight


Oh Louise

What a beauty you should be
You showed me to my empathy
What is you might as well be me Louise
Here I am staring back at me
A product of my history
I can’t get up off of my knees Louise


You treasure all the knowledge
That you can’t afford
A place from the crowd
When you waltz through the door

If you fall through the cracks
And you can’t find your way
You know there’s a place that won’t turn away
There’s a chair right here that waits for you

Life is lottery
Buy a ticket for the memories
I’d like to see what you can feel
Oh Louise
Your world is a mystery
You’ve become my reality
My fisher king and my drama queen


Chorus X2
