Looking for You Songtext

von Rodney Crowell

Walked the streets until my heart hit the ground
There's no relief whenever you're not around
I hit the taverns where we both used to go
But it don't help me when the night's movin' slow
And I'm lookin' for you, lookin' for you

I searched the city for the girl I once knew
It's such a pity there ain't no one like you
I tried to see my way to forget your name
I turned to strangers but it's still not the same
I'm just lookin' for you, in the heart of this town
Lookin' for you, you're nowhere around
Lookin' for you, in the still of the night
Lookin' for you, but you're nowhere in sight

I can see you in the shadows
I can hear you when the wind blows
If it's all I ever do
I'll keep lookin' out for you, oooh

Exchaning glances from a sidewalk cafe
So many chances but you don't look my way
I search the windows for this face I can't find
Can't seem to drive your memory out of my mind
'Cause I'm lookin' for you, in the heart of this town
Lookin' for you, you're nowhere around
Lookin' for you, in the still of the night
Lookin' for you, but you're nowhere in sight
Lookin' for you, in the village below
Lookin' for you, where did you go
Lookin' for you, in the east and west side
Lookin' for you, where do you hide
