it never was you
(Maxwell Anderson/Kurt Weill)
I've been running through rains
and the wind that follows after
for one certain face
and an unforgotten laughter.
I've been following trains
and staring after ships
for a certain pair of eyes
and a certain pair of lips.
Yes, I've looked everywhere
you can go without wings
and I found a great variety
of interesting things.
But, it never was you.
It never was anywhere new.
An occaisional sunset reminded me
or a flower hanging by on a tulip tree
or one red star hung low in the west
or a heartbreak call from a meadowlark's nest
Made me think for a moment maybe it's true
I found you in the star,
in the calm, in the blue
But, it never was you.
It never was anywhere you.
Anywhere,
Anywhere you
