Hunting High And Low
A-Ha · Ending On A High Note - The Final Concert [2011]
She sounds asleep and she's sweeter now
Than the wildest dream could have seen her
And I watch her slipping away
But I know I'll be hunting high and low
High, there's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Hunting high and low
High, there's no end to lengths I'll go
To find her again, upon this my dreams are depending
Through the dark, I sense the pounding of her heart
Next to mine, she's the sweetest love I could find
So I guess I'll be hunting high and low
High, there's no end to the lengths I'll go to
High and Low, high, do you know what it means to love you...
I'm hunting high and low
And now she's telling me she's got to go away
I'll always be hunting high and low, only for you
Watch me tearing myself to pieces, hunting high and low
High, there's no end to the lengths I'll go to
Heeey, for you I'll be hunting high and low
