You saw me standing
Out in the street
I was looking for some action
Yeah, someone to meet
There was holes in my pockets
And a hole in my s-oul
And a whole lot of questions
About which way to go

Lookin' for love
Lookin' for drugs
Lookin' for a pretty

~Chorus~
Lookin' for love
Lookin' for life
Livin' in the city

Come on

Like a joke without a punch line
Like a rat in a maze
Like last year's paper
Yellow with age
I was a deck without a dealer
I was a day without a d-awn
I was a train without a station
Until You came along

Lookin' for love
Lookin' for fun
Isn't it a pity

~Chorus~

You found me broken
In the bad part of town
Couldn't look up to heav-en
'Til I was all the way down
Your love reached for me
Felt the scars on Your hand
Saw Your cross on the skyline
Now I understand

Born for love
Born for life
You were born in the city

You died for love
You died for life
You died for the city

You're returning for love
Returning for life
Jesus, returning for the city
