Howard Jones Hide and Seek lyrics

There was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just a distant hum
There was a being and he lived on his own
He had no one to talk to and nothing to do

He drew up the plans
Learnt to work with his hands
A million years passed by and his work was done
And his words where these

Hope you findin' it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you findin' it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you

So she had built her elaborate home
With it's ups and it's downs, it's rain and it's sun
She decided that her work, it was done

Time to have fun and found a game to play

Then as part of the game
She completely forgot where she'd hidden herself
And she spent the rest of her time
Trying to find the path

Hope you findin' it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you findin' it in everything
Everything that you see
Hope you find it, hope you find it
Hope you find me in you

Was a time when there was nothing at all
Nothing at all, just a distant hum
