Looking High, High, High

I once had a love and oh

I loved her very dearly

She told me she loved me so

I thought she spoke sincerely

But one day, away

I found that she had flown

And off to find that love of mine

I set alone

Looking high, high, high, looking low, low, low

Wondering why, why, why did she go, go, go?

For if I, I, I don't find my love, I know

I shall die, die, die, 'cause I love her so

I journeyed across the sea

I sought her with devotion

Oh, where she could really be?

I've not the slightest notion

But so bright the light

Of love within me shone

I knew full well, what e'er befell

I must go on

Looking high, high, high, looking low, low, low

Wondering why, why, why did she go, go, go?

For if I, I, I don't find my love, I know

I shall die, die, die 'cause I love her so

Due east over desert sands

Due west where grass is greener

I asked in a dozen lands

But none had ever seen her

It was clear, I fear

My quest was all in vain

So I departed, sad at heart

For home again

Looking high, high, high, looking low, low, low

Wondering why, why, why did she go, go, go?

For if I, I, I don't find my love, I know

I shall die, die, die 'cause I love her so

But when I arrived, all brown

And tanned by wind and weather

You sure could have knocked me down

With the proverbial feather

She stood there, so fair

And sweetly she confessed

That she'd been wrong and all along

She'd loved me best

I'd looked high, high, high, I'd looked low, low, low

Wondering why, why, why did she go, go, go?

Now that I, I, I have found my love, I know

Till I die, die, die, I will love her so

For if I, I, I don't find my love, I know

I shall die, die, die 'cause I love her so

(Looking high, high, high)
