Verse I

 

After all the leaves are gone.

And I’m singing the same old song.

Yes, it’s the same old song.

How can I be so right and be so wrong?

 

Chorus

 

I am so busy looking up.

And so busy looking down.

That I couldn’t see.

What is in front of me?

I couldn’t see you around.

 

Verse II

 

And maybe I need you.

To help me sort through.

For what is right and what is wrong?

And everything that is left.

Wherever you maybe, and whoever you are.

I wished you’d come and find me.

And listen to your heart.

 

Chorus

 

I am so busy looking up.

And so busy looking down.

That I couldn’t see.

What is in front of me?

I couldn’t see you around.

 

Verse III

 

Maybe it’s me you’re looking for.

I am waiting outside your door.

I’m going in and going out.

And sometimes, it makes me want to shout.

As I’m tongue-tied and twisted.

I’d wish you’d come around.

And listen to your heart.

 

Chorus

 

I am so busy looking up.

And so busy looking down.

That I couldn’t see.

What’s in front of me?

I couldn’t see you around.
