Jackson Browne - Downhill From Everywhere

Still Looking For Something

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

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

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

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

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

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
