Looking For Someone

from Here I Am by Ross Mayhew

/

lyrics

i'm walking down the street trying to catch the eye
of someone who is like my me inside
i'm looking around trying to find an open mind
to find someone else swimming against the tide
i'm hoping that i'll move my feet
to the vicinity of a stranger who's not fast asleep
will i find them i don't know for sure
but i haven't got the time not to explore
when you look do you see
do you want what you really need
tell me, tell me what are you after

when i look around me everybody seems asleep
i cry for the world and the future looks bleak
there's so much to do something about
i'm not giving up hope, my hand is reaching out
i'm reaching out for someone to help keep me sane
while the world goes the other way
i don't want to waste your time or for you to waste mine
if you seek perfection then i'm leaving you behind
when you speak what do you say
will you take control or will you throw it away
tell me, tell me what are you after

life is a journey it'll have it's ups and downs
but i'll treat you right, i'll save you if you drown
i'm not gonna be counting the days
every day's a blessing when you're heading the right way
you've gotta stand up for what it is you believe
every action you do will plant a seed
a seed of hope or a seed of doubt
water the one that shows what you're about
when you listen do you hear what they say
or is it just white noise from your day
tell me, tell me what are you after

the road you walk only leads one way
when the sun sets you can't relive that day
you gotta have the courage to start over again
ignore god and the devil, you don't need them
tears will fall and smiles will shine
no matter on what path you decide
every jounrney has a begining and an end
tomorrow's for the future, yesterday was then
do you listen to your soul
or are you scared of the truth it holds
tell me, tell me what are you after
