Story behind the song
heh, a cosmic song about searching for something, it feels connected to 62 billion light years with a similar outro... the searched thing doesn't necessarily have to be another person tho...
Lyrics
where are you? i've been looking for you dear...
but everywhere these eyes have fallen you're nowhere to appear
where are you? i've been looking all this time...
but everywhere that i've been searching you're nowhere i can find
problem is - i don't even know what it is i'm looking for, and everything i used to hate, are now the things that i adore.
problem is - i've come full circle back to where i was before..only the things that used to matter don't matter so much anymore.
rest your eyes on any fuckn star, and i can guarantee you, that mine will not be far
chances are, it will be the star that falls, cuz the way things have been heading i can't hold my head up at all.
where are you? i've been looking around... but everywhere that i've been searching you're nowhere to be found
where are you? i guess i just don't know.. as i've searched from the 1st of the springtime rain, till the last of the winter snow.
problem is - i don't even know what it is i'm looking for, and everything i used to hate, are now the things that i adore.
problem is - i've come full circle back to where i was before..only the things that used to matter don't matter so much anymore.
rest your eyes on any fuckn star, and i can guarantee you, that mine will not be far
cuz chances are, it will be the star that falls, cuz the way things have been heading i can't hold my head up at all.
"so hand me a telescope - extended for maximum view"
and i will scan every inch of this night sky looking for you
"pass me a compass no matter which pole points to you..."
cuz i would travel to each extent - it would seem like little to do
"pass me a microscope and an ounce of hope"
that one day i'll find you..........
