Lyrics

Everybody’s Looking words and music by Diana Di Gioia

All you firefly fairies, and blues blowing Romeos
You’re sweet like an oyster, shiny in its nude repose
You’re trading your lines at the Uptown Grill
Hopin’ you can cop a little Friday night thrill
But it all comes to nothin’, leaves you cooling your heels and toes
‘Cause everybody’s lookin’ for someone that nobody knows

Her touch was like the call of the road to a restless heart
I was sad about the end before we’d figured out a way to start
We were dry like tinder, we were tough like flint
Just one little spark, and up we went
Now I try to forget her, but her scent has gotten into my clothes
Everybody’s looking for someone nobody knows


I wanna drink your gaze
I wanna be amazed
I wanna sail to the back of the moon
I wanna fill my lungs
I wanna speak in tounges
I wanna stay in bed till noon with my baby
Noon with my baby, noon with my baby

I was livin’ at the heartbreak hotel, down in Shady Glen
I was lookin’ for the pieces to put our love back together again
These master’s level puzzles had been all the rage
One thousand pieces, in shades of beige
Now the edges look solid, but the middle’s just too tough to compose
‘Cause everybody’s lookin’ for someone that nobody knows
Everybody’s looking for someone nobody knows

Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey,
Nobody knows
