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
   A 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 you come around
   You can stare out at the sky,
   building castles in the air
   He won't be coming 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
