I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For (Live) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
(Alright)
[Verse 2]
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like a fire (Burning hot like fire)
This burning desire (Burning with desire)
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night (In the night)
I was cold as a stone, yeah (Cold as stone)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
(Alright)
[Verse 2]
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like a fire (Burning hot like fire)
This burning desire (Burning with desire)
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night (In the night)
I was cold as a stone, yeah (Cold as stone)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
[Post-Chorus]
He will lift ya, higher and higher
He will pick you up when you fall
He'll be your shelter from the storm
[Verse 3]
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running
You broke the bonds (Broke the bonds)
Loosed the chains (Loosed the chains)
Carried the cross (Carried the cross)
Of my shame (Of my shame)
Of my shame
You know I believe it
(I believe, I believe)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
Well, I still haven't found what I'm looking for
[Verse 1]
I have climbed (I have climbed)
The highest mountain (Highest mountain)
I have run (I have run)
Through the fields (Through the fields)
Only to be with you (Only to be with you)
Only to be with you (Just to be with you)
I have run (I have run)
I have crawled (I have crawled)
I have scaled (I have scaled)
These city walls (City walls)
These city walls (Only to be with you)
Only to be with you (Just to be with you)
He will lift ya, higher and higher
He will pick you up when you fall
He'll be your shelter from the storm
[Verse 3]
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running
You broke the bonds (Broke the bonds)
Loosed the chains (Loosed the chains)
Carried the cross (Carried the cross)
Of my shame (Of my shame)
Of my shame
You know I believe it
(I believe, I believe)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
Well, I still haven't found what I'm looking for
[Verse 1]
I have climbed (I have climbed)
The highest mountain (Highest mountain)
I have run (I have run)
Through the fields (Through the fields)
Only to be with you (Only to be with you)
Only to be with you (Just to be with you)
I have run (I have run)
I have crawled (I have crawled)
I have scaled (I have scaled)
These city walls (City walls)
These city walls (Only to be with you)
Only to be with you (Just to be with you)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Searchin', lookin', higher)
But I still (I haven't found it) haven't found (Oh yeah) what I'm looking for
(The New Voices of Freedom!)
[Verse 3]
I believe (I believe)
In the Kingdom Come (In the Kingdom Come)
All the colours (When all the colours)
Bleed into one (Bleed into one, yeah)
Ooh (You know I believe it)
I believe it (You know I do)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Searchin', lookin', higher)
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Keep searchin' around)
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
(I keep on searchin' tryin' to find it)
But I still haven't found (I'm searchin' high and low) what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Searchin', lookin', higher)
But I still (I haven't found it) haven't found (Oh yeah) what I'm looking for
(The New Voices of Freedom!)
[Verse 3]
I believe (I believe)
In the Kingdom Come (In the Kingdom Come)
All the colours (When all the colours)
Bleed into one (Bleed into one, yeah)
Ooh (You know I believe it)
I believe it (You know I do)
[Chorus]
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Searchin', lookin', higher)
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for (Keep searchin' around)
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
(I keep on searchin' tryin' to find it)
But I still haven't found (I'm searchin' high and low) what I'm looking for
