Well, I've been crushing the symptoms but I can't locate the cause.

           
Could God really be so cruel?

                              
To give us feelings that could never be fulfilled.

Baby, I've got my sights set on you. 

                
I've got my sight set on you

                      riff       
And someday, someday, someday, you'll come my way.

                                
But when you put your arms around me

                                               
I'll be looking over your shoulder for something new

                                      
'cause I ain't ever found peace upon the breast of a girl

                               
I ain't ever found peace with the religion of the world

                               
I ain't ever found peace at the bottom of a glass

                              
Sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive

                              
Sometimes it seems the more I ask for the less I receive

                                             
The only true freedom is freedom from the heart's desires

                                 
and the only true happiness....this way lies.
