They just told me take a pause
here between the takes at the studio,
And you came into my mind
It's kind of funny, for you were the cause
of me being here on the radio
And though that's another time,
I'm still wanting you,
I've been hunting for you
I'm still wanting you,
I need to find you
I'm just the same sad singer of the lonely songs
you long since left behind you
Since you've gone I've gone along,
Been writing the music I've always wanted to,
And they just picked up on me
I'm putting myself here inside each song
And finding my music is still so full of you

I dreamed of being here,
but I never dreamed that you would be so long time gone from me,
Oh, I'm still wanting you,
I've been hunting for you
I'm still wanting you,
I need to find you
I'm just the same sad singer of the lonely songs
you long since left behind you
Oh, me finding music's why I lost you,
Now, it's the only chance I've got
They're bringing in the strings to melt your heart somehow
You couldn't hear me then,
but maybe you can hear me now
Oh, I'm still wanting you,
I've been hunting for you
I'm still wanting you,
I need to find you
I'm just the same sad singer of the lonely songs
you long since left behind you
When I'm still wanting you
