When I was a boy, I could not stand the silence   I needed the noise, I was underage and overjoyed   Changin' my ways, but there's so many ways to change   I'm going up, I'm getting wise, I'm gettin' strange      All I was lookin' for was you   All I was lookin' for was you      I ran my ship into the ground   Chasin' some high and lonesome sound   From Venice Beach to Kathmandu   My money's gone, my time it flew   All I was lookin' for was you (All this time, All this time)      Some marry for love, some marry for money   Dollars and cents, through open arms and barb 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 lookin' for was you   All I was lookin' for was you      The endless highways I road down   The girls I kissed in every town   Midnight on Heartbreak Avenue   All twisted up on bitches' brew   All I was lookin' 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 lookin' for was you   All I was lookin' for was you      The endless highways I road down   The girls I kissed in every town   Midnight on Heartbreak Avenue   All twisted up on bitches' brew   All I was lookin' for was you   All I was lookin' for was you (All this time)      I learned the words, I sang the song   Then I got lost in Babylon (All this time)   I ran my ship into the ground   Chasin' some high and lonesome sound   The lies I told to get me through   Nobody knows me like you do   All I was lookin' for was you
