I've been running through rains
And the winds that follow after
For one certain face
And an unforgotten laughter
I've been following signs
I've been searching through the lands
For a certain pair of arms
And a certain pair of hands
Oh, I tried a kiss here
And I tried a kiss there
For when you're out in company
The boys and girls will pair

But it never was you
It never was anywhere you
An occasional sunset reminded me
Or a flower growing high on a tulip tree
Or one red star hung low in the west
Or a heartbreak call from the meadowlark's nest
Made me think for a moment, "Maybe it's true
I found him in the star, in the call, in the blue."
But it never was you
It never was anywhere you
Anywhere, anywhere you
