Come and See

Summary

I have climbed the highest mountains
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
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.
(U2, “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for”)

It takes superhuman strength not to belt those lyrics.
For those of you who may not know,
the words I just quoted are lyrics rom a song by the group U2.
In the car, when the song comes on the radio during ‘80’s weekend,
I belt it out, but when I ask our children to join in,
they just kind of roll their eyes and shrug their shoulders.
No, in that one respect, I still haven’t found what I’m looking for in them.
