Thomas Easaw — The Search lyrics

Lyrics

Just when the prophets were good to be good to be Telling the good from the good
Next in the line came the teachers, the preachers
Of Morals, Law and Order
I was looking for somebody new
Who could tell me the truth from the truth
Well then, all the while I wished somebody knew
I was looking for somebody new.
Down through the years I have seen many people
And I’ve heard them say many things
Each time I made a small mistake or so Well, I didn’t know whom to believe
I was looking for somebody new
Who could tell me the truth from the truth
Well then, all the while I wished somebody knew
I was looking for somebody new.
And then I tried to rely on books
I didn’t know which one to, which one not to In my confusion I thought I might as well
Heed all, reject everything too
I was looking for somebody new
Who could tell me the truth from the truth
Well then, all the while I never thought of myself
I was looking for somebody new
