Rodney Crowell
Looking for a Corner
[Verse 1]
Trouble when you're searching and you ain't so very young
You don't fit into table talk but you can't hold back your tongue
You have what they all desire, so you must want it too
I'm looking for a corner to back my heart into
[Verse 2]
Trouble when they know you, your face or just your name
They count the times you stumble when you barely know the game
You know you never asked for this, someone who looks like you
I'm looking for a corner to back my heart into
[Bridge]
I just want to find while there's still time
Some peace of mind that I can hold on to
I ain't lookin' for no magic door
Then waiting for someone to push me through
[Verse 3]
Trouble when the ones you love don't know how to love you back
You're forever climbing icy walls, forever falling back
You're not even lying and they don't believe it's true
I'm looking for a corner to back my heart into
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Trouble when the heartaches don't hurt you anymore
There's nothing like the passion that you felt so long before
You have what they all desire but you don't want it, too
I'm looking for a corner to back my heart into
I'm looking for a corner to back my heart into
