lyrics

The Mummy

I woke up to find that something was missing
My heart in a jar beside my bed
Someone had come along while I was sleeping
And stolen my heart and got in my head

I've been looking and looking and looking and looking
To find someone like you
I've been searching and searching
For the one who stole my heart

At first I didn't know where to start looking
So I got on a plane and flew to New York
LaGuardia airport was filled with people
I looked and a I looked but I couldn't find you

I've been looking and looking and looking and looking
To find someone like you
I've been searching and searching
For the one who stole my heart

I walked and I stalked through the park at night
By moonlight I shambled with endless resolve
I shuffled and stumbled my way up the stairway
I made my way to the Egyptian wing

And then I saw you
My heart in your hands
You were talking to some people
You knew all about me
I knew right away
That we had to be together
You were coming with me
To the land of forever
I hid in the corner
Till the museum closed
If I was gonna talk to you
It had to be alone
You turned off the lights
The timing was right
I walked up behind you and said

I've been looking and looking and looking and looking
To find someone like you
I've been searching and searching
You're the one who stole my heart
