Lyrics Love Was There - My Brightest Diamond

Love was there all along
I couldn't see it, could not perceive it
I went looking in people, in places, in dreams,
Where it could not be found
Oh love was there all along

But I thought I didn't deserve it
Hadn't earned it
Was sure love was for somebody else
So I did all kinds of crazy
Told myself it wasn't crazy
To swallow down
What no seemingly sane person would do

But I did, I did, I did, I did, I do
Keep going back to people, places and dreams
Looking for love where it is not found
Ooo, why do I keep looking out?
Keep looking out?
Love was here all along
Can I see it, begin to perceive it?
