Lyrics



I ……………………. highest mountain
I …………………….through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run
I ………………………
I …………………………… these city walls, these city walls
Only to be with you

But I still ……………………….. what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I …………………………….. honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I …………………….. with the tongue of angels
I ……………………………. the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone, mmm, hmmm

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one, bleed into one
Well yes, I'm still running
You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame, of my shame
You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
