"Lookin' For You" lyrics

"Lookin' For You"
(feat. Dolly Parton)

Mm
Mm

All the times that I worked hard
Because I believed
That life could have meaning through
Things I've achieved

You knew
I was looking for You

Every time I thought romance
Might fill up the hole
That incomplete feeling
Still ached in my soul

Oh, You knew
I was looking for You

Down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
And a thousand foolish things I went through
I didn't know it back then but now I do
I was looking for You
I was looking for You

When I couldn't find comfort
In the things I could buy
When the party was over (Mm)
And the bottle was dry

Oh, You knew
I was looking for You
Yes, I was searching
Oh and I was searching
I was searching

Down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
And a thousand (And a thousand)
Foolish (Foolish)
Things I went through
Didn't know it back then but now I do
I was looking for You
(I was looking for)
I was looking for You

Through the canyons and the heartaches (Oh)
And the valleys full of pain (Oh)
And down those pathways full of pleasure
And those (Oh) dead-end roads of shame (Oh)
Oh, I couldn't name the hunger
That (Oh) I tried to satisfy

Down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
And a thousand foolish things I went through
In a moment (In a moment)
I looked up (Looked up)
From down on my knees
And I cried out to heaven (Heaven)
I could finally see
(See Jesus)
Jesus (Jesus)
Jesus (Jesus)
I know it's true (It's true)
All of my life I was looking for You

Jesus
