Looking High, High, High - 1960

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK 04 Aug 2001

I once had a love and oh,
I loved her very dearly,
She told me she loved me so,
I thought she spoke sincerely,
But one day, away,
I found that she had flown,
So off to find
That love of mine
I set alone.

Looking high, high, high
Looking low, low, low.
Wond'ring why, why, why
Did she go, go, go,
For if I, I, I
Don't find my love I know
I shall die, die die
'Cos I love her so.

I journeyed across the sea,
I sought her with devotion,
Tho' where she could really be
I'd not the slightest notion.
But so bright the light
Of love within me shone,
I knew full well
What e'er befell
I must go on.

Looking high, high, high
Looking low, low, low.
Wond'ring why, why, why
Did she go, go, go,
For if I, I, I
Don't find my love I know
I shall die, die die
'Cos I love her so.

To east over desert sands,
To west where grass is greener,
I asked in a dozen lands
But none had ever seen her.
It was clear, I fear,
My quest was all in vain,
So I departed,
sad at heart,
For home again.

Looking high, high, high
Looking low, low, low.
Wond'ring why, why, why
Did she go, go, go,
For if I, I, I
Don't find my love I know
I shall die, die die
'Cos I love her so.

But when I arrived all brown
And tanned by wind and weather,
You sure could have knocked me down
With the proverbial feather.
She stood there, so fair,
And sweetly she confessed,
That she'd been wrong
And all along
She'd loved me best.

I looked high, high, high,
I looked low, low, low,
Wond'ring why, why, why
Did she go, go, go,
Now that I, I, I
Have found my love I know
Till I die, die, die,
I will love her so.
