Don’t go looking for him lady
Don’t go looking for him now
He’ll be sailing ’cross the Ocean
By the time you turn around
All he carries is his pride,
He has nothing to his name
What he’s leaving you behind,
Is the burdon of the blame
Don’t go looking for him lady
He’s far gone now

Don’t go looking for him lady
Don’t go looking for him now
He’s somewhere across the border
In some lonely, little town
tattoo on his arm,
Is all that will remain
Of a lady with no heart
Playing stupid little games
Don’t go looking for him lady
He’s far gone now

    And now you’re gazing at the moon
    Humming melancholic lines
    Burning candles in your room
    As if to see the light

Don’t go looking for him lady
Don’t go looking for him now
He’ll be over the horizon
By the time [bad word] around
You can stare out at the sky,
Building castles in the air
He won’t [bad word] back this time,
There’ll be no answer to your prayers
Don’t go looking for him lady
He’s far gone now

    And now you’re gazing at the moon
    Humming melancholic lines
    Burning candles in your room
    As if to see the light

Don’t go looking for him lady
Don’t go looking for him now
There’s no need to be sorry for yourself,
It don’t matter anyhow
Don’t go looking for him lady
He’s far gone now
Don’t go looking for him lady
He’s far gone now
