[D#m] From the Porta Bella Road to the Porta Marseille
where the dervish turns
where the wild goats play
Looking for you.
I was
[Am]
[D] [A]
in the medieval night
Was love's design
The [F#m] sky [E] was open [A] like a valentine
Oh the lazy lights
Little wishes fall
[F#m] Like Shakespeare's [E] child I wished [A] on a moth
[F#m] Envy [E] or destiny [D] was all that I [A] pursued
[F#m] I could see in the sights [E] from the lofting heights, [D] but my heart had [B] scattered views
[D] I was looking [A] for you
Looking [D] for you.
Looking [A] for you.
Looking [D] for you.
What could [F#m] I do?
[E] I was looking [A] for you
Along the black river Ambassador Jewel
And you were [F#m] reflected
[E] In all that [A] I saw
In the Tower of Gold
In the wheel and the waiting
Ripping [F#m] my senses [E] like an ancient [A]
claim
When [D] is the time [F#m] I know the [D] light of?
Giving to all that [A] I knew
[Bm] Got my eyes [F#m] and strips that I [D] may find [E] Look you
[A] I was looking for you
Looking [D] for
[A] you
[D]
What could [F#m] I [E] do?
But I was looking [A] for you Come on
Is written [F#m] for [E] us Medieval [A] fire
It was love's design
In [D] the glitter [A] stars
Like [F#m] Shakespeare's child
[E] To be where [A] you are
