Seeking

 what a beautiful man
such a traveler
such a player

he is seeking

always for a new face
a new enticing body
a new conquest
a new town or city
the latest drug
the craziest sex
the latest escape
but he can't find it
hard as he may try

cause it's not out there

what a beautiful woman
such a consumer
such a class act

she is seeking

always for the next pleasure
a gorgeous new shoe
a new piece of jewelry
the next gourmet meal
the next getaway
the feeling of security
the cozy plush life
but she can't find it
hard as she may try

because it's not there either

so if you want to find it
it's never out there
it's always hidden inside
it's asking what you can give
rather than what you can get
that will set you free

so you can stop

seeking
