We Could Be Looking For the Same Thing Lyrics
Way way out past where the sidewalks disappear
And up through bright blue blocks of sky
Where the days turn to weeks in the months the year
And we're together, you and I.
We could be looking for the same thing,
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.
I hope I don't come across as a coyote in your eyes
But I've been around some and I've seen
Enough to know we could both spend happy lives
Inside the days of you and me.
We could be looking for the same thing,
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.
And up through bright blue blocks of sky
Where the days turn to weeks in the months the year
And we're together, you and I.
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.
But I've been around some and I've seen
Enough to know we could both spend happy lives
Inside the days of you and me.
If you're looking for someone.
We could belong to each other,
If you're not seeing anyone.

I hope I don't come across as a coyote (wolf) in your eyes... ... inside the days of ewe (sheep) and me.
Playing off the wolf in sheep's clothing concept?
Overall, just a nice song that deals with settling with eachother if you are both just looking for someone to settle with. Not really love, but an acceptance.
Small difference to what is written but I think it is,
"where the days turn the weeks into months of the year"
Just like in Suffering Jukebox it is
"these seconds turn these minutes into hours of the day".
I also think it could be "where together, you and I" and the rest of the song follows.
