Looking
Looking round but feeling square, seems I just don’t fit
anywhere
You jam me into a shape that suits you well as you say you
care
Looking up yet I’m feeling down, I’m no king, it’s just a
phony crown
Nothing to rule I just need some faced paint cause I feel
like a clown
Where are the rest of our days? Have I missed them or are
they up a ways?
Loving comes, but never too long, tell me how long till it
finally stays?
Looking out, but I keep it all in, shouldn’t start, if you
don’t know where to begin
Sitting on the front porch a dog on either side humming to
myself as I grin
Looking happy, but I’m really going mad, relaxing sunsets
are something I’ve never had
Sharing tomorrow’s, enjoying today’s, dreams that I hope
will make me glad
Looking to the Heavens, feeling like hell, am I lost in love
or under your spell?
Things get so crazy till I hold you; you know sometimes I
can’t even tell
Where are the rest of our days? Have I missed them or are
they up a ways?
Loving comes, but never too long, tell me how long till it
finally stays?
Looking for the day it stays
