Well, you thought you found your answer   On that magic carpet ride last night   When you wake up in the morning   The world still gets you uptight      There's nothing that you ain't tried   To fill the emptiness inside   But when you come back down, girl   You still ain't feeling right      You think you're gonna find yourself   A little bit of paradise   Well, it ain't happened yet   So, girl you better think twice      Can't you see no matter what you do   You'll never run away from you   And if you keep on running   You'll still have to pay the price      And don't you know that   Kicks just keep getting harder to find?   And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind   Before you find out it's too late, girl   You better get straight      Kicks just keep getting harder to find   And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind   Before you find out it's too late, girl   You better get straight      {Nobody told me   No, you don't need to help   You face the world each day   That road goes nowhere   I'm going to help you, help you   Help you, help you, help you find yourself another way}      Kicks just keep getting harder to find   And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind   Before you find out it's too late, girl   You better get straight      Kicks just keep getting harder to find   And all your kicks ain't bringing you peace of mind   Before you find out it's too late, girl   You better get straight
