When we're young we look for answer from our parents They tells us to look for the answers in God When we're young adults we look for the answers in our friends We look for the answers in the bottom of a bottle We look for answers in the drugs we take When we are fully grown we look for answers in our spouses We look for answers in our profession We look for the answers in the books we read We’re always looking for answers Answers to all the questions that can’t be answered We spend a life time looking But the answers are in the faces of our children The eyes of our lovers The lives we’ve touched The friends we made The bad part of life we’ve tasted The knowledge we’ve gained And in the knowing that the answers aren’t what’s important Because the answers are in the lifes we’ve lived.
