I been hangin' round this place I been lookin' through your space I been waitin' for you I've been waitin' for you All the places you would go, All the people that you know I've been lookin' for you I've been lookin' for you and all those pretty people up on El Cerrito place They all got somethin' in their pockets all got somethin' on their face They roll down to La Brea where it meets the boulevard Singin' hallelujah while they dance over the stars
Chorus Me I've been lookin' for you baby I've been lookin' for you baby I've been lookin' for you baby I've been lookin' for you baby all night long
Somebody said they might have seen you Where the ocean meets the land so I've been out here all night lookin' For your footprint in the sand, did you hear the ocean singin' Baby did you sing along, while you danced over the water to that ol' Forgotten song, were you even here at all
Chorus
Somehow I wound up in the desert just after daylight There's a Joshua Tree grows that little place you always liked These pioneer town people they got too much to say If they might have seen you they ain't givin' you away Now it's been two days
Chorus
Think I'll go back to the city back to El Cerrito place That's the last time I saw that pretty smile upon your face I've been lookin' for you baby
