Looking for Jack - Colin Hay

Everybody’s always looking for Jack

In the fire and in the water

Everybody’s always looking for Jack

In the streets and on the corners

I always wanted to be like Jack

He’s as cool as they come

Yeah I always wanted to be like Jack

Still for me, he’s the one

Someday… Someday…

Someday… Someday…

Hear the wind blow through the long grass

I hear laughter in the night

No revelations as the years pass

They disappear from sight

As I grow older I grow younger

Every day is like a dream

I wouldn’t go back for a moment

Except for maybe seventeen

Someday… Someday…

Someday… Someday…

Everybody’s always looking for Jack

In the fire and in the water

Everybody’s always looking for Jack

In the streets and on the corners

Even Jack is always looking for Jack

He’s always in another room

And when I spoke to the woman there

She said he left this afternoon

Someday… Someday'.
