Lyrics

(Rafferty)

It looked so good from the outside, I couldn't wait to join the crowd
It all looked different on the inside
It must have been my imagination
I felt so sure that was where I wanted to be..

I thought i'd get out of the city, I took a trip down to the sea
I didn't stay too long 'cause there was nothing there but sky and ocean
Oh yeah, it must have been my imagination
I really thought that was where I wanted to be..

Looking for something that might have some meaning
Looking for something that might make me feel alive
Looking around for the right situation
Where I can believe what's happening right in front of my eyes

I think i'll stay in one position, and just leave well enough alone
I'm never satisfied 'til i've been disillusioned
Oh yeah, it must be my imagination
I always think there's a better place to be..

Looking for something that might have some meaning
Looking for something that might make me feel alive
Looking around for the right situation
Where I can believe what's happening right in front of my eyes
