Martyn Joseph I Searched for You Lyrics Martyn Joseph lyrics

The heart is a mystery
Stumble out of bed each day and struggle to be free
Stood by an ocean raging blue
Big wave cracked the sidewalk and I fell down there with you
Fell in with you

I scoured the land and the sunset glow
You think you know my friend but you just don't know
That's why the heart is a mystery
Break it in two and you'll see things you couldn't see before

I searched for you
Found and lost you on the way
I searched for you
Over the hill of a better day
I searched for you
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
I searched for you
And I'll do it again

Should only frame you in a metaphor
Not cast you off in our own image anymore
Big questions etched across the sky
The weight and reason of everything we'd like to know

I searched for you
Found and lost you on the way
I searched for you
Over the hill of a better day
I searched for you
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
I searched for you
And I'll do it again

Saw the blessing saw the curse

I've seen my best and I've seen my worst
Seen a lot of beauty seen a little hate
The great indifference and a twist of fate
Seen a lot of passion and empathy
The power and greed of the me me me
Seen a lot of suffering seen a lot of good
Felt the big life love of a neighbourhood
A needle in the arm and the sadness grow
The holy and the hidden and the outcast soul
Seen a lot of surplus but in the wrong place
And in the eyes of the broken I thought I saw your face

I searched for you
Found and lost you on the way
I searched for you
Over the hill of a better day
I searched for you
Now I'm stranded here in a passion play
I searched for you
Give me a sign I'll be there straight away
I searched for you
Stood in line 'til I don't know when
I searched for you
In every mile I couldn't comprehend
I searched for you
And I'll do it again

The heart is a mystery
Stumble out of bed each day and struggle to be free
Stood by an ocean raging blue
And I searched for you
