Searchin' For The One I Love |
LyricsIf you can take your hand out of your back pocketAnd dish up the right change You could shoot yourself like an A1 rocket Out along your dreamlike range Then you could see the land of promise As you rise with the holy dove And sail your soul like a silver comet I'm searchin' for the one I love. I never had any money But I never let my dreams die I had my own way of believing My silent prayers they got me by And all the words that the prophets fed me Made me believe they came straight from above And while they crusade against one another I'm searchin' for the one I Love. By my side there sits a baby My mother flies high in the sky In the ground lies my father sleeping So I'm gonna run like a dear until I die And I work for 10 cents an hour I crawl the tunnel to rise above People look away when they see me coming Cause I'm searching for the one I love. So I'm walking the street in the mystic light My breath just adds to the fog There's a preacher standing on every corner Screaming at me that I live like a dog So I take him the key to my believing He says his word comes straight from god And I say if you see God give him my phone number Tell him I'm searchin' for the one I love. |
