Fastball - All I Was Looking For Was You Lyrics

When I was a boy
I could not stand the silence
I needed the noise
I was underage and overjoyed

Changing my ways
But there's so many ways to change
I'm growing up
I'm getting wise, I'm getting strange

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
I ran my ship into the ground
Chasing some high and lonesome sound

From Venice Beach to Kathmandu
My money's gone, my time it flew
All I was looking for was you
All this time, all this time

Some marry for love
Some marry for money
Dollars and cents, through open arms
And barbed wire fence

Running away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me free

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I rode down
The girls I kissed in every town

Midnight on heartbreak avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was you

Running away
From everything that looks like me
I heard a voice
I saw your face, it set me free

All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
The endless highways I rode down
The girls I kissed in every town

Midnight on Heartbreak Avenue
All twisted up on bitches brew
All I was looking for was you
All I was looking for was you
(All this time)

I learned the words, I sang the song
Then I got lost and babbled on
(All this time)
I ran my ship into the ground
Chasing some high and lonesome sound

The lies I told you kept them through
Nobody knows me like you do
All I was looking for was you
