I searched for love in strangers' eyes
In fleeting nights and whispered lies
In the silence of a crowded room
I chased the highs, the moment's gloom
But love was never in the thrill
Just a hollow echo, a distant chill
I was searching for a ghost in the night
A connection that didn't feel quite right
I thought I'd find it in the city's pace
In the noise, the chaos, the endless space
But love wasn't in the crowded streets
It was in the quiet moments, the heart's beats
Now I'm learning to slow down my pace
To look for love in a different place
A connection that's real, that's true
A love that's worth the wait, the heart that's new
