Jackson Browne — Still Looking For Something

[Chorus] I'm still looking for something I'm out here under the streetlight baby I'm still looking for something in the night I might be giving up something You don't get something for nothing, baby Nothing you can hold up to the light If all I find is freedom, it's alright [Verse 1] And I knew since I was just little The sharp edges of the world will whittle Your dreams down to shavings at your feet Gonna do my best not to settle I know it's gonna test my mettle To keep my options open Even so I'm hoping [Chorus] And I'm still looking for something I'm way out over my due date baby I'm still looking for something in the night I know I'm headed for somewhere We all dream about somеwhere, baby We all want to go whеre life is bright You don't want to end up nowhere, but you might [Verse 2] And I knew since I was just little The sharp edges of the world will whittle Your expectations into something else And I know beyond the tough titty Somewhere there's a heart in the city And I'm out here to find it And the soulful smile behind it [Chorus] And I'm still looking for something I'm out here under the neon, baby Still looking for something in the night I don't mind giving up something You don't get something for nothing, baby You don't give up on love without a fight If I don't find it this time it's alright [Outro] Gonna keep my options open Even though I'm hoping For something I can hold up to the light Don't know that I'll find it Or the soulful smile behind it If all I find is freedom, it's alright
