I search for you most everywhere
in my memories - but they aren’t clear
I look through the tangled strands of my hair
And even in the cigarette smoke in the air
I look inside my heart that’s bled
I look between the words you said
I look in my bed and underneath the covers
I look past the lies you told as my lover
I look for you in rapture,
I look for you in grace
I even try to find you in my
underwear of lace
I thought you may be lurking
beneath my heavy sighs
I swore I saw you swimming
in the tear drops from my eyes
I look for you in my lip stain-
blood red and midnight blue
I look for you on notepads
of sketches that I drew
I look for you in ink spills
on paragraphs of prose
I search for you in my paintings
under hues of amber and rose
I look for you by candle light
in starry nights of black
I look for you in eloquence
dripping down with wax
I don’t think I will find you
for I haven’t got a clue
I think you may be hiding,
it’s something that you’d do.
I know if I keep looking
and remain under your spell
I will finally join you
as I’ll lose myself as well
