Never Find Another ‘Ewe’

04 August 2006


When sheep were white
and snow was fresh to amount
This woollen warmth to compound
there was love in them there hills
and the you, in you I had found

For I would never find another ewe
there was only one close to my heart
This moment to pause in thought
a love to blossom as unto spring

For I'll never find another you
that in itself seems so possible
Because if love was meant to be this way
there was never another you, ever to stay

A heart at rest, every beat in tune
just to watch a rainbow
And know how it was best to end
this love, a destination to ponder
while another you, was within my heart to sing


“There is always someone. For each of us they say
And you'll be my someone. For ever and a day
I could search the whole world over
Until my life is through. But I know I'll never find another you”

Lyrics: “I’ll Never Find Another You” (Tom Springfield)
Performed by the Australian Folk Group “The Seekers” (Australia, 1965)
Written by Tom Springfield, brother of Dusty Springfield (Mary O’Brien)
While they both changed their last name to Springfield,
at one time Tom and Dusty Springfield recorded and performed
together as a group known as ‘The Springfield’s”
before English born Dusty embarked on a solo career.
