You're Just What I Was Looking for Today
Hey little woman
You're just what I was lookin' for today
I needed someone
(Needed someone)
And you're just what I was lookin' for today
Good things seem to happen to you
When you just happen to
Run across them in life
But if you wait too long you know that
When you turn around you
Find you have lost them in life
(Lost them in life)
The sun may have to shine
(May have to shine)
But the visions in my eyes were painted gray
Now it's a silver lining
(Silver lining)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
We could drift away together
Where you and I could be alone
Nothing that is real applies
Underneath the nothing-matters skies
We could sit and fantasize a world of our own
Good things seem to happen to you
When you just happen to
Run across them in life
But if you wait too long you know that
When you turn around you
Find you have lost them in life
(Lost them in life)
Ah, you're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
You're just what I was lookin' for today
I needed someone
(Needed someone)
And you're just what I was lookin' for today
Good things seem to happen to you
When you just happen to
Run across them in life
But if you wait too long you know that
When you turn around you
Find you have lost them in life
(Lost them in life)
The sun may have to shine
(May have to shine)
But the visions in my eyes were painted gray
Now it's a silver lining
(Silver lining)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
We could drift away together
Where you and I could be alone
Nothing that is real applies
Underneath the nothing-matters skies
We could sit and fantasize a world of our own
Good things seem to happen to you
When you just happen to
Run across them in life
But if you wait too long you know that
When you turn around you
Find you have lost them in life
(Lost them in life)
Ah, you're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
(Just what I was lookin' for)
You're just what I was lookin' for today
