LOOKING
I woke up this
morning with the sunrise
Looking for you but
in vain
You were already long
gone
You left me alone
with this pain
You promised I’d
never be lonely
That you’d always
stay
You always told me
you’d be around
And that you’d never
run away
So
there is no use in looking
When
every day that passes
You’ll
be a little more gone
And
a little bit farther from me…
So
when will I stop looking?
You swore you’d
always be here
That I’d never be on
my own
So tell me why you
changed your mind
And left me out here
all alone
They say everyone
finds their way
But me, I’m still
lying here
Waiting for the night
to come again…
To sleep, to dream,
to disappear
But
there is no use in looking
When
every day that passes
You’re
a little more gone
And
a little bit farther from me…
So
why don’t I stop looking?
I’m just lying here
Waiting for the night
to come again…
To sleep, to dream,
to disappear
So when will I stop
looking?
Maybe I’ll never stop
looking
