Knickerbocker Holiday: It Never Was You

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
