Still Looking

I stared into the mirror
Heard the refrigerator hum
The neighbor’s dog was howling
And the clock was ticking on
I washed my face and I called your name
But you didn’t seem to hear
I looked into the mirror
But I didn’t see you there

So I did what any good scientist would do
Ran out and bought a microscope to help me look for you
I focused in on what I thought for sure to be your skin
But I didn't see you anywhere and I haven't seen you since 

Tell me is it true
Tell me is it true

I flew to the observatory, looked up at the sky
Asked myself if I were you where would I think to hide
Watched the clouds, the planets and their moons all spin
But I didn't see you anywhere and I haven't seen you since

Tell me is it true
Tell me is it true

I did all of the things that count as looking
In the trees, under rocks, on the wind, down in the sea
I stood on the ledge, I stepped through the peaks
But you weren’t anywhere close to me
So I went back to the books 
Sutras, scrolls and codexes
Rosetta Stones, Upanishads
The Book of J and Genesis
But I didn't see you anywhere
And I haven’t seen you since

Tell me is it true
Tell me is it true

I stare into the mirror
Hear the refrigerator hum
The neighbor’s dog howling still
And the clock still ticking on

Still looking for my love
Still looking for my love
Still looking for my love
Still looking, looking for my love
