It Never Was You

I've been running through rains

And the wind that follows after

For one certain face

And an unforgotten laughter

I've been following signs

I've been searching through the lands

For a certain pair of arms

And a certain pair of hands

Yes, I tried a kiss here

And I tried a kiss there

For when you're out in company

The boys and girls will pair

But it never was you

It never was anywhere you

An occasional sunset reminded me

Or a flower hanging high on a julep tree

Or one red star hung low in the west

Or a heart-break call from a Meadow Lark's nest

Made me think for a moment, maybe, it's true

I found him in the star, in the call, in the blue

But it never was you

It never was anywhere you

Anywhere, anywhere you
