I look for you among the meandering crowd
Among the nameless, faceless, directionless flood
Yet you are not there, then again why would you be?
A precious flower would not dwell with weeds

But here I am within that same crowd
Dare to dream that I'm worthy of your love
Wondering how I could escape this hold
This mindset of mediocre goals

So I look for you on some lonely path
Knowing that they're yours to chart
Moving away from the maddening crowd
The silence of our ignorance so astonishingly loud

I look for you but you're not there
How can my Princess just disappear?
Why can't I find you, the one whom I seek?
Why do you elude me like a restful night' sleep?

But you have seen me from a far way off
You silently watch me navigate the crowd
As I struggled to escape the all consuming flood
As I call out to you not knowing where to turn

Then after all is said and done
Reality has rocked the foundation of love
How could the universe allow this travesty
Where a flower would actually love a weed
