What Are The Lyrics For What You Look For By Mary Chapin Carpenter?
What you look for on a dirty street
Is a patch of green beneath your feet A stubborn weed or a traveling rose Either one lives to grow What you look for in a stranger's eyes Is if he sees through your disguise How we long to be revealed To be known we might be healed Send it out into the Universe A humble plea, a wish, a broken verse Be a seed that lands inside the cracks Seek the sun and it shines back What you looked for when you were a girl Was a window out into the world From a speeding car or a passing train You were hypnotized just the same And what you look for now that you are grown Is proof of how time has flown An empty house, a strand of grey And an endless longing for yesterday Send it out into the Great Elsewhere A kind of hope, a chant, a simple prayer Be the child whose dreams won't ever fade Shout and storm the barricades What you look for in your darkest hour Is a dirty street with just a flower Send it out not knowing where it went Into the blue, into the firmament Be the one who wonders at it all Send it out into the Universe A humble plea, a wish, a broken verse Be a seed that lands inside the cracks Seek the sun and it shines back It shines back |
