I've been hopelessly clutching up for something I can hold I've been lying in the dark with no light in my soul I've been rummaging around in the rain and the cold I've been searching for diamonds in a pile of coal I've been searching for diamonds in a pile of coal I've been reckless and ragged, I've been running to the ground I've been lost for so long I forgot I could be found I've been holding my breath for the axe to come down I've been searching for angels in the devil's time I've been searching for angels in the devil's time Searching for a heart to love Is like staring at the stars above And there's a million I can see But only one that shines for me So I keep searching for a heart to love Oh, to love Well, I've been dancing blindly, I've been preaching to the choir And the boy who cried wolf but I dispute that I'm alive When I left my fryng pan to jump in to the fire I've built my house on the sand and I'll keep on building it higher I've built my house on the sand and I'll keep on building it higher Searching for a heart to love Is like staring at the stars above You can't teach it how to feel What isn't there, what isn't real So I keep searching for a heart to love Well, I keep searching, I keep searching Yeah, I keep searching, I keep searching love Yeah, I keep searching for a heart to love Love Love Love
