You Won't Find Me There - 10,000 Maniacs

You Won't Find Me There Lyrics

I'd like to know what makes you stay
While your eyes still search for escape
You think that I don't feel the cold, baby
But I wait while confessions unfoldYou'll never make a living from reading minds
Or from getting your direction from exit signs
Look into your heart and you won't find me thereYou won't find me where you hide, baby
And that makes us a matter of time
Like trees exposed by fall, baby
Time reveals it allYou'll never make a living from reading minds
Or from getting your direction from exit signs
Look into your heart and you won't find me there
Oh, uh huhTell me you want to do everything but you're stuck up to your knees
And I'm less likely pushed forward by ambition than a breeze
But there's a flame that must be fanned, baby
And it appears as a beckonin' handDon't think 'cause you're not talking you're being kind
You've been getting your direction from exit signs
Look into your heart and you won't find me thereYou wont find me, huh, there
You won't find, you won't find, you won't find me there

Oh you won't find, you won't find, you won't find me there
