Searching
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I light a candle everyday
And only just for you
In the same old fashioned way
You'd have done the same for me too
To the world you were just one
But to me you were the world
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
To believe in you
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some reason
It's so hard to do
There's a feeling in my heart
That's never gonna pass
It makes life so very hard
Not just for me but for all of you
To the world you were just one
But to me you were the world
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
To believe in you
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some reason
It's so hard to do
Why keep it all inside
Y'know ya gotta search for something
And what ya used to know is pride
Y'now it gave you nothing
Can't ya see it gave ya nothing
Every single day
Every single day that your gone
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
To believe in you
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
It's so hard to do
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
To believe in you
I've been searching
Searching for the reason
To give my life some meaning
To believe in you...
