When I was a boy
I could not stand the silence
I needed the noise
I was underage and overjoyedChanging my ways
But there's so many ways to change
I'm growing up
I'm getting wise, I'm getting strangeAll 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 soundFrom Venice Beach to Kathmandu
My money's gone, my time it flew
All I was looking for was you
All this time, all this timeSome marry for love
Some marry for money
Dollars and cents, through open arms
And barbed wire fenceRunning away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me freeAll I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I rode down
The girls I kissed in every townMidnight on heartbreak avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was youRunning away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me freeAll I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I rode down
The girls I kissed in every townMidnight on Heartbreak Avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
(All this time)I learned the words, I sang the song
Then I got lost and babbled on
(All this time)
I ran my ship into the ground
Chasing some high and lonesome soundThe lies I told you kept them through
Nobody knows me like you do
All I was looking for was you
