mmm

mmm
mmm
all the times that i worked hard
because i believed
that life could have meaning through
things i’ve achieved
you knew
i was looking for you
every time i thought romance
might fill up the hole
that incomplete feeling
still ached in my soul
oh, you knew
i was looking for you
down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
and a thousand foolish things i went through
i didn’t know it back then
but now i do
i was looking for you
i was looking for you
when i couldn’t find comfort in the
things i could buy
when the party was over (mmm)
and the bottle was dry
oh, you knew
i was looking for you
yes, i was searching
oh and i was searching
i was searching
down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
and a thousand (and a thousand)
foolish (foolish)
things i went through
didn’t know it back then
but now i do
i was looking for you
(i was looking for)
i was looking for you
through the canyons and the heartaches (oh)
and the valleys full of pain (oh)
and down those pathways of full of pleasure and those (oh)
and dead end roads of shame (oh)
oh, i couldn’t name the hunger that (oh)
and i tried to satisfy
down a hundred highways of empty pursuit
and a thousand foolish things i went through
in a moment (in a moment)
i looked up (looked up)
from down on my knees
and i cried out to heaven (heaven)
i could finally see
(see jesus)
jesus (jesus)
jesus (jesus)
i know it’s true (it’s true)
all of my life i was looking for you
