I once loved a girl
with a road and black curls
Her body so ripe and so fair
Her kisses were sweeter
than grapes in the sun
Not a thing could go wrong in this world
Cause a train was our home,
a couch was our bed
An opera nobody saw
Like a song I remember stuck in my head
I'd do anything to get you back now
I keep looking for someone,
that friend that I knew
Ain't it something a lover might do?
Will I find you again?
Or did our story just end? I'm still looking,
I admit that it's true
And even that time when I looked away,
I never stopped looking for you
There are many miles gone, years kept us apart,
and the letters I write I don't send
Your image cuts deep, deep in my heart
Too broken to try an d abandon
Are you a
Venus of gold rising out of a shell?
Or a wish I once dropped in a well?
Or a face of an angel wounded by love
The face of my lost love, yeah
I keep looking for someone,
that person I knew
Is it something a lover would do?
Will we find it again?
Or did our story just end?
I'm still looking, I admit that it's true
And even that time when I turned away
I always was looking for you
I miss you so much, your skin and your touch
I forget why I do what I do
The road's wet and dark
I tear down a heart
Was that a road ever running by you?
And the dreams that we sow
Lie waste by the road
How on earth will we get them all back?
And if love is a lie
Why does love ever try?
I won't stop to let myself ask
I keep looking for someone,
that friend that I knew
Ain't it something a lover might do?
Will I find you again?
Or did our story just end?
I'm still looking, I admit that it's true
Even the time when I looked away I
never stopped looking for you
Looking for you
I'm for you
I'm begging for you
