Lyrics Brian Wilson

Brian Wilson

Soul Searchin'

I was a bum, I told a lie

I did you wrong, I made you cry

So now I'm walkin' all alone

Down the darkest streets in town

Standin' in the rain

While my tears keep fallin' down

I'm soul searchin'

How could I say goodbye?

Soul searchin'

And make you cry?

How could I leave somebody like you?

What kind of fool would be so untrue?

And I can't make any sense

No matter how I try

And all the things I've done

Come back to haunt me by and by

Soul searchin'

There's nobody like my baby

Soul searchin'

It's gonna drive me crazy

Why, oh, why

Did I ever, ever say goodbye?

I must be out of my mind

I keep walkin' and I'm wonderin'

And I'm looking for a sign

Why do I get all the bad breaks?

How could I make such stupid mistakes?

But the truth won't come to me

No matter how I rack my brain

The rain keeps fallin' down

And I'm callin' out your name

Soul searchin'

There's nobody like my baby

Soul searchin'

It's gonna drive me crazy
