Making out
That you never felt the same
You are in doubt.

Verse:
 
Too soon my eyes grow dim
I try
To recognise the figures
Drifting by.
 
And too late, the sane man comes
With the key
I fight the loneliness
It just ain't me.
 
Now the evening bows
To the night
And I feel the world go down
Before my eyes
 
And recklessly
I'm running round
Cos' I tried to find another
Name so proud.
 
Chorus:
 
Hey y'know, There's someone who seems like you in every way
Yeah, I'm gonna search, I'm gonna search, I'm gonna search every day.

Verse:
 
Many years ago
In my past
I realised my dream would never last
 
And constantly
The letters fade
And I sense the better half
Has already played
 
And the colours cross my mind
Anyway
And the feelings that I find
So very hard to say
 
Now gone with the rain
Making out
That you never, never felt the same
You are in doubt
 
You're still in doubt......
