Lyrics

Searchin'
© 2009 Hank Thomas/Barbara Martin LaFlesh


I've been searchin' for a reason, to put a stop to things today
Ain't much time to talk it over', time's all been wasted anyway
The easy way's to take the high road, Yes yer honor, sign the papers, walk away
But it could be time to look each other in the eye,
put our differences aside, maybe find a better way

Chorus
I been thinkin' 'bout it, livin' life without you
It don't seem like somethin' that I want to do
I could say I'm sorry, like I've done a hundred times,
But that don't mean you're gonna change your mind.

I know you'e thinkin', where's all this comin' from,
It's just like him to wait til we get up before the judge
I can't help but see, the lovin' in your eyes,
the achin' in your heart is just the same as what's in mine

Chorus

Sometimes a man is blind to what he really needs,
But right now I see it clearly and I'm beggin' on my knees

If you're thinkin' 'bout it, livin' life without me
And it don't seem like something that you want to do
You could say you're sorry, like I've done a hundred times,
Maybe you could change your mind and baby
You'd start searchin' for it,
Just reach out and touch my hand
We'll keep on searchin' for that perfect love we planned

Oh baby you don't have to cry
