Looking To Look For

I saw your face last night,

It didn’t mean that much,

But still

I have to wonder

Where did all these feelings grow.

It was so hard to part,

But then you turn around

And fell in love with someone else,

I didn’t think you’d let me go.

I’m looking to look for.

You really look the same,

And when you came to say hello

You put your arm around me

Just the way you used to do.

Bones beneath your shirt,

Your pants an inch too short.

You smile, that boy, you smile

I always loved the mug above your upper lip.

I’m looking to look for,

I’m looking to look for.

It’s so easy to forget

Sometimes it’s like we never met.

And when you turned away

You said you’d see me later,

Watch you walk into the cloud,

That was when all the lights went down.

Like a life, went through a looking glass

You opened up your mouth

To see a different man,

All these years came rushing by.

I’m looking to look for,

I’m looking to look for.

It’s strange how close we used to be

This life can be so bittersweet.

I know we’re better off,

I watched you smoke your cigarette

And there’s a girl stage left,

She’s waiting for you in the dark.

When we say goodbye

I wanna laugh the laughs we used to laugh

Instead, we make a plan for a coffee

That we’ll never have.

I’m looking to look for,

I’m looking to look for,

I’m looking to look for.
