I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

Listen to the song and fill in the gaps:




I ________ highest mountain
I __________ through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I _______
I ___________
I __________ these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still __________ what I'm looking for
But I still __________ what I'm looking for

I __________ honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I __________ with the tongue of angels
I __________ the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still __________ what I'm looking for
But I still ____________ what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it

But I still _________ what I'm looking for
But I still _________ what I'm looking for
But I still _________ what I'm looking for
But I still _________ what I'm looking for...

Now check your answers:

I have climbed highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for...
