U2 – I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For Lyrics | 17 years ago |
a beautiful song! yes. it tells of a man who has experienced a lot. Highs and lows. Loss and regret. Sensual love. Been cold and alone. He is obviously a very religious man. But he still hasn't found what he's looking for. He just keeps looking. E. A. Poe wrote a poem titled "Eldorado" that spoke of a similar character. A brave knight who searched his whole life looking for the lost city of gold. He never found it. But ran across a ghost/spirit who told him to keep looking, if that was what he was looking for. Some searches are just the search itself. the search *is* what you are looking for. |
