Verse 1:
Loosened from my pride
Oh that monster he kept me so tight
I threw my aces down
Just to face the here and the now
Refrain 1:
So here I go again
I want to please
So here I’ll go again
Sweet I’ll sleep
Sleep ‘til I dream
Chorus:
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been looking
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been searching
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
G D (G, B+, C, G)
And your love is what I’ve--- found
Verse 2:
As cautious as a thief
Oh but restless with all of my needs
Now I stand before all I want
And all that I've adored
Refrain 2:
So here I go again
I need to please
Yeah here I go again
Sweet you sleep
Sleep ‘til I dream
Chorus:
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I've been looking
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been searching
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
And your love is what I’ve
Bridge:
Long days, long nights
Just blinded by what was already in sight
Now I’ve found, found my way home
(G, B+, C, G)
Yeah, I’ve found my way home
Chorus:
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been looking
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been searching
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been lurking
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been staring down
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I’ve been searching
(Wo-ho-ho-ho-ho)
I've been staring down
And your love is what I’ve found
(Outro: C)
