[Verse 1]
I drank some good wine in California
I had some wild nights in East Berlin
I kissed a hundred girls
That I don't remember
Good love for me was hard to find
I’ve had the finest food in Barcelona
I heard the deepest grooves in New Orleans
I've been knocked back by beautiful women
Good love for me was hard to find
[Chorus]
I've been halfway ’round the world looking to find someone
Every sunset with a stranger but it wasn't love
So I'm waiting for you
Like I know you're waiting for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
I've been halfway 'round the world looking to find someone
Like you for me
(Yeah, yeah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
(Whoo, yeah)
[Verse 2]
I walked the High Line in New York City (in New York)
Seen the Red Lights at the Reeperbahn
I've had the worst hangovers, but the best time, oh
Good love for me is hard to find
You know I've had my shares of a fault start, sweet scar
But nothing that I regret
I got this picture in my head of a perfect postcard
But I haven’t sent it yet
[Chorus]
I’ve been halfway 'round the world looking to find someone (someone)
Every sunset with a stranger but it wasn’t love
So I'm waiting for you
Like I know you're waiting for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
I've been halfway ’round the world
Looking (around the world) to find someone
Like you for me
[Bridge]
When you walk on by (you walk on by), on by
(Oh-oh, oh) would I know it was you that I want?
(Oh-oh, oh) and all my life, my life
Ooh-ooh (oh-oh, oh)
[Chorus]
I've been halfway 'round the world looking to find someone
Every sunset with a stranger but it wasn't love
So I'm waiting for you, babe (like I know)
Whoo, like you're waiting for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
I've been halfway (yeah) 'round the world looking to find someone
Every sunset with a stranger, but it wasn't love (wasn't love)
So I'm waiting for you
Like I know (wasn't love) you're waiting for me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
I've been halfway 'round the world
Looking to find someone (the world, the world)
Like you, for me
