I Still haven't fond what I'm looking for
Apollinare Rossi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I have run through The Fields
Only To Be With You
Only To Be With You.
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled These City Walls,
Only To Be With You.
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For.
I Have Kissed Honey Lips
Felt the healing in Her Fingertips
It burned like fire
This Burning Desire.
I have spoke with the tongue of Angels
I have held The Hand of a devil
It was warm in The Night
I was cold as a Stone.
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For.
(MUSIC)
I Believe In The Kingdom Come
Then All The Colors Will
Bleed Into One,
Bleed Into One
Well Yes, I'm Still Running
You Broke The Bonds
And You Loosed The Chains
Carried The Cross Of My Shame,
Of My Shame,
You Know I Believed It.
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For
But I Still Haven't Found
What I'm Looking For.
In Apollinare Rossi's song "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," the lyrics describe the journey of the singer to find something elusive that they haven't found yet. The song opens with the phrase, "I have climbed the highest mountain. I have run through the fields. Only to be with you," which seems to suggest that the singer has tried everything they can to search for this unknown but important thing. They say that they have "run, crawled and scaled [these] city walls" in search of this mysterious thing. It's clear from these lyrics that the singer is passionate about finding whatever it is they are looking for.
The second verse of the song continues in the same vein, with the singer describing how they have kissed "honey lips" and "felt the healing in her fingertips." The next line, "it burned like fire, this burning desire," seems to suggest that the singer is passionate about finding what they're looking for, even if it causes them pain. They also describe speaking with the tongue of angels and holding the hand of a devil - two contrasting ideas that seem to highlight the singer's desperation to find what they are looking for.
The final verse of the song seems to suggest that the singer believes in the kingdom come, where "all the colors will bleed into one." This line seems to suggest that the singer is seeking a form of unity or closure, perhaps with regards to a personal or spiritual belief. The song ends on a triumphant note, with the singer saying that "you broke the bonds and you loosed the chains" and that they still haven't found what they're looking for. It's a poignant and powerful song that speaks to the universal desire to find meaning and purpose in life.
