I Searched for You

Well, the heart is a mystery

Stumble out of bed each day and struggle to be free

Stood by an ocean raging blue

Big wave cracked the sidewalk and I fell down there with you

Fell in with you

I scoured the land and the sunset glow

You think you know, my friend, you just don't know

That's why the heart is a mystery

But break it in two and you'll see things you couldn't see before

I searched for you

Found and lost you on the way

I searched for you

Over the hill of a better day

I searched for you

In every mile I couldn't comprehend

And I searched for you

And I'll do it again

Should only frame you in a metaphor

Not cast you off in our own image anymore

Big questions etched across the sky

The weight and reason of everything we'd like to know

And I searched for you

Found and lost you on the way

And I searched for you

Over the hill of a better day

And I searched for you

In every mile I couldn't comprehend

And I searched for you

And I'll do it again

I saw the blessing, I saw the curse

I've seen my best and I've seen my worst

Seen a lot of beauty and I've seen a little hate

The great indifference and a twist of fate

Seen a lot of passion and empathy

The power and the greed of the me, me, me

Seen a lot of suffering, I've seen a lot of good

Felt the big life love of a neighbourhood

A needle in the arm and the sadness grow

The holy and the hidden and the outcast soul

Seen a lot of surplus but in the wrong place

And in the eyes of the broken I thought I saw your face

And I searched for you

Found and lost you on the way

And I searched for you

Over the hill of a better day

And I've searched for you

Now I'm stranded here in a passion play

And I've searched for you

Just give me a sign, I'll be there straight away

And I searched for you

Stood in line till I don’t know when

And I searched for you

In every mile I couldn't comprehend

And I searched for you

And I'll do it again

Well, the heart is a mystery

Stumble out of bed each day and struggle to be free

Stood by an ocean raging blue

And I searched for you
