As I Wander Down the Highway

I'm lookin' to be in the right place, But I'm walking in the wrong direction, I'm lookin' for a smiling face, But all I'm finding is my own reflection I'm lookin' for someone to hold me tight, But I'm wand'rin' through a sea of cold shoulders, I'm asking for this tunnel to end in light, But I feel like I'm just gettin' older I'm lookin' for somethin' that makes me smile, But all I find on my face is a disappointed frown, I'm thinkin' that all this waitin' better be worthwhile, But I just keep gettin' pushed on the ground I'm startin' to give up hope, But something reminds me to keep moving, I'm starting to throw out the mope, And I trade it so I can start improving I was lookin' to be in the right place, And I found out right where I belong, It's right here, staring at your face, In your arms where nothing can go wrong
