lyrics

I searched for you in earnest
Everyday when I was young
But now that I've grown older,
All I know is you are gone

I’ve stumbled on every bramble
And hidden under trees
I’ve looked through every valley
But I never found the seed

Looking for you
Looking for you
Looking for you
Looking for you

And I’ve read the mystic pages
Of every book that I can find
I’ve been drunk, I’ve meditated
And tried substances divine

But I’ve just heard bits of whispers
When I expect a colossal roar
And my dreams are mostly muddy
So I don’t search anyone

Refrain

Some say you're all around us
Some say you’re in you and me
Some you don’t exist
And that the joke is all on me

But until then I’ll keep looking,
Albeit in vain
I will fall, I will travail
On the path to hear you plain

Refrain
