I Didn’t Know…
Surfing the Internet. Looking for inspiration. For all things, You. Hmmm…
Red Hot Chili Peppers. Love. Songs. Red Hot Chili Peppers’ love songs.
Found something called, “Looking for Love.” I don’t know that one. I can’t find the track on any album list. I can’t find the song anywhere. Only these lyrics.
Well, I do love words.
And you.
Happy Birthday.
Love, Me.
LOOKING FOR LOVE
I was alone thinking I was just fine,
I wasn’t looking for anyone to be mine
I thought that love was just a fabrication,
A train that wouldn’t stop at my station
Home, alone, that was my consignment,
Solitary, confinement
So when we met, I was getting around you,
I didn’t know I was looking for love until I found you.
I didn’t know I was looking for love
‘Cuz there you stood, and I would,
Oh I wonder, could I say how I felt and not be misunderstood?
A thousand stars came into my system,
I never knew how much I have missed them.
Slap, on the lap, of my heart you landed,
I was coy, but you made me candid,
And now the planets circle around you,
I didn’t know I was looking for love until I found you.
So we build from here with love the foundation
In the world of tears, one conselation
Now you’re here and there’s a full brass band
Playing in me like a wonderland
But if you left I would be two foot small
And every tear would be a waterfall
Soundless, boundless, I surround you
I didn’t know I was looking for love until I found you.
I just didn’t know.
