Searching

Tipton Glenn

When I Was Young And Alive
Just Looking For Ways To Survive
I Never Did Quite Realise
How Time Eats Away At Your Life

Now I Am Older For Sure
And Close To The End Of It All
So I Reflect With Hindsight
Sitting Alone Every Night

And I Was Desperate To Find
The Things I Have Here By My Side
Now That I’ve Let It All Go
I Cry For The Children So

And I’ve Spent All My Life
Searching For Nothing
And I’ve Wasted My Time
To End Up With Nothing

And I Tried So Hard To Understand
The Yearnings Of A Younger Man
I Know That I Would Change My Plans
If I Could Take My Time Again

(Taken Out Two Verses)

When I Was Young And Alive
Just Looking For Ways To Survive
I Never Did Quite Realise
How Time Eats Away At Your Life

I Have Spent All My Life
Searching For Nothing
And I Wasted My Time
And It’s All Come To Nothing
When I Was Young And Alive
I Needed Nothing
Now I Am Ready To Die
I’ve Still Got Nothing
