Never in my lifetime have these eyes of mine Been fortunate to see the woman for me But I hang around this old town Dealin' with the same crowds in the street Will I ever see You can find me on the hillside lookin' all around Or out there by the oak trees on the edges of town It don't matter where I go It don't matter what I see Cuz I ain't ever gonna find the woman for me She moves just like the springtime And she's quiet like the voices in the wind That never end When she calls me I come runnin' It don't matter where I am Cuz I am her man We go out for a long walk by the dreamer's sea
But the only footprints in the sand are left by me From the top of the mountain To the bottom of the sea Tell me lord where do I find the woman for me Well I thought I got a hold of her Back when I was young enough to fall for a crazy girl But time went by and I found that I was nothing more than just a boy in a crazy world And I got dirt on my face and I'm losin' my mind I been swimmin' through this desert for the longest time No matter where I go No matter what I see She's always on the other side The woman Oh the woman for me
