I still haven't found what I'm looking for
Coco Freeman 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
These city walls
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 the 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
I believe in the Kingdom come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running
You broke the bonds
and you loosened chains
carried the cross of my shame, of my shame
You know I believe it
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
The lyrics of Coco Freeman's cover of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" express a feeling of restlessness despite having achieved lofty goals and experienced a range of sensations. The singer states that they have "climbed the highest mountains" and "run through the fields" but only to be with the person they love. This suggests that all their accomplishments so far have not brought them the satisfaction they crave, and they continue to search for something more.
The second verse of the song adds more detail to the singer's journey of self-discovery. They have experienced both pleasure and pain: "I have kissed honey lips / Felt the healing in the fingertips / It burned like fire / This burning desire." They have also encountered both good and evil: "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." In spite of all these experiences, they still feel like something is missing.
The final verse introduces a religious or spiritual element to the song. The singer mentions "the Kingdom come" and the idea of all colors bleeding into one. This could be interpreted as a reference to the idea of all humanity uniting in a perfect world or afterlife. However, the singer also admits that they are "still running," suggesting that they have not yet arrived at this state of enlightenment or fulfillment. The repetition of the final line "but I still haven't found what I'm looking for" emphasizes the ongoing nature of this search.
Overall, the lyrics of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" express a sense of dissatisfaction with life's offerings and a desire to find deeper meaning and purpose. The song suggests that even those who have achieved success in various areas of life may still feel unfulfilled and search for something more.
