Lyrics for The Seeker

I'm happy when life's good And when it's bad, I cry I've got values, but I don't know how or why I'm looking for me You're looking for you We're looking in at each other And we don't know what to do They call me The Seeker I've been searching low and high I won't get to get what I'm after 'Til the day I die
