Patty Smyth - Out There lyrics

rate me

Lizzy got married on Christmas Day

On the Coney Island Coast, I remember the way

She stood in the cold

With the sun in her hair

Me and my brother were standing by

I remember my mother started to cry

Liz just looked at the sea

A million miles away

I said, now Lizzy can you tell me what you see

And tell me why

You keep a looking

Out there

Why you keep searching

Out there

When everything you'll ever want or need

Is right here, with me

Yeah and I took a ride with whoever would ask

I looked for the future, was done with the past and the present

Hey that was just something to get through

And the nights went by

And the years went too

My life was a mirror

The reflection was you

And at the end of the day

My voice was so far away

Ooh but maybe you could tell me who I am

And tell me why

I keep a looking

Out there

Why I keep searching

Out there

For something you can't taste or touch or see

No no no

Cause it's right here, in me

And I know it's all an illusion

You see what you wanna see

And I know, I know, ain't nothing gonna rescue me now

I can take all this confusion

I just wanna be here now

And everything you'll want or need

I know

It's right here

I keep a looking

Out there

I keep reaching

Out there

For something you can't taste, touch, or see

No no no

Cause it's right

I said

Na na na

Na na na

Na na na

Out there

Na

Na

It's always right here
