Jackson Browne

Still Looking For Something
I'm still looking for something I'm out here under the streetlight, baby, I'm Still looking for something in the night I might be giving up something You don't get something for nothing, baby Nothing you can hold up to the light If all I find is freedom, it's alright And I knew since I was just little The sharp edges of the world will whittle Your dreams down to shavings at your feet Gonna do my best not to settle I know it's gonna test my mettle To keep my options open, even so I'm hoping And I'm still looking for something I'm way out over my due date baby, I'm Still looking for something in the night I know I'm headed for somewhere We all dream about somewhere, baby We all want to go where life is bright You don't want to end up nowhere, but you might And I knew since I was just little The sharp edges of the world will whittle Your expectations into something else SongtexteAnd I know beyond the tough titty Somewhere there's a heart in the city And I'm out here to find it, and the soulful smile behind it And I'm still looking for something I'm out here under the neon, baby Still looking for something in the night I don't mind giving up something You don't get something for nothing, baby You don't give up on love without a fight If I don't find it this time, it's alright Gonna keep my options open, even though I'm hoping For something I can hold up to the light Don't know that I'll find it, or the soulful smile behind it If all I find is freedom, it's alright Aus Songtexte Mania
