Lyrics

[Verse 1] Time was drifting - this rock had got to roll So, I hit the road and made my getaway Restless feeling really got ahold I started searching for a better way [Chorus] And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't get it right No, I couldn't get it right [Verse 2] Philly fever made me feel alright But, I must admit it got the best of me Gettin' down so deep I could've drowned Now, I can't get back the way I used to be [Chorus] And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't get it right No, I couldn't get it right [Verse 3] New York City took me with the tide And I nearly died from hospitality Left me stranded and took away my pride Just another no-account fatality [Chorus] And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't get it right No, I couldn't get it right Yeah, I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't get it right No, I couldn't get it right And I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't see the light Cos I couldn't get it right I kept on looking for a sign in the middle of the night But I couldn't see the light, no, I couldn't see the light I kept on looking for a way to take me through the night But I couldn't get it right No, I couldn't get it right
