I Looked for You

I looked for you in everyone

I looked between the moon and the sun

I look for you in girls that are not

Even resembling the picture I've got

I asked if you were seen down the park

Old men on benches, they had not

I looked in churches, cemeteries and bars

I looked in the void between the stars

All the while

I might have known

You were waiting home yeah

You get tired of waiting

For me baby

I asked if you were seen down in hell

Prophets of bad weeather couldn't tell

I searched in brothels, and I looked

For your name in every library book

I showed your picture to the man

Working at the newspaper stand

Been looking every waitress in the eye

I looked from the gutter right up to the sky

I might have known

You were waiting home yeah

You get tired of waiting

For me baby
