Find What You're Looking For Lyrics - Singles - Elliot Matsu

Find What Youre Looking For 

Growing up, out on the prairie 

Growing up, you want to be married 

Oh my darling, I see you waiting and your time is coming 

The hours are running into days that will pass away 

Come the morning youll be leaving on a plane 

Youve heard the stories but youve never slept a night in a tall building 

Youve heard the names and thought that you might like the same 

To find what youre looking for, to come back just once more 

And in their faces, I can see the way it was before the war 

The gateless gate, the teachers holding the open door 

And in these dirty moments, dull confusion rattles us awake 

Churning, trying to undo our first mistake 

Growing up on right and wrong 

Growing up, were raised on fighting 

All our honor, a fleeting feeling that goes out with the tide 

It rises up and settles down and leaves us lying in confusion 

We grasp for air and reach out grabbing for illusion 

To find what were looking for, we come back just once more 

And in their faces, I can see the way it was before the war 

The gateless gate, the teachers holding the open door 

And in these dirty moments, dull confusion rattles us awake 

Churning, trying to undo our first mistake 

Coming here, to find what were looking for 

We come back just once more
