"All I Was Looking For Was You" lyrics

"All I Was Looking For Was You"

When I was a boy
I could not stand the silence
I needed the noise
I was underage and overjoyed
Changing my ways
But there's so many ways to change
I'm growing up
I'm getting wise I'm getting strange

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
I ran my ship into the ground
Chasing some high and lonesome sound
From Venice Beach to Kathmandu
My money's gone my time it flew
All I was looking for was you
(All this time) [x2]

Some marry for love
Some marry for money
Dollars and cents
Through open arms and barbed wire fence
Running away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me free

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I road down
The girls I kissed in every town
Midnight on heartbreak avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was you

Running away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me free

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I road down
The girls I kissed in every town
Midnight on heartbreak avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was you
(All this time)
I learned the words I sang the song
Then I got lost in Babylon
I ran my ship into the ground
Chasing some high and lonesome sound
The lies I told you kept them through
Nobody knows me like you do
All I was looking for was you
