George Harrison - Looking For My Life Lyrics






Oh Lord, won't you listen in to me now
Oh Love, I got to get me back to you somehow

I never knew that life was loaded
I'd only hung around birds and bees
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life

Oh boy, you've not idea what I've been through
Oh Lord, I feel so stuck that I can't get to you

Had no idea that I was heading
Toward a state of emergency
I had no fear where I was treading
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life
Caught up on me with intensity
Had no idea where I was heading
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life

Oh boys, you've no idea what I've been through
Oh Lord, I got to get back somehow to you

I never knew that life was loaded
I only hung around birds and bees
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life
I never got any GCE's
I never knew that things exploded
I only found it out when I was down upon my knees
Looking for my life, looking for my life
Looking for my life, looking for my life
Looking for my life

    Phenomenal spiritual emotions here. Hats off.

  3. i.... l....

    Another gem from Brainwashed album!

  4. G.... b....

    I've always loved George as a person, because of the way he ran his personal life. Just as he was known as "the Quiet One", that's exactly how he managed his personal world. His music was a great outlet for him, because as he matured in his years, so did his ideas and his beliefs. I'm so glad to have discovered him and his music, and being able to relate to a lot of it and his beliefs along my road to maturity. Thanks again, George

  5. M.... d....

    only the humble seek God

  6. C.... S....

    I had no idea I was heading to an estate of emergency... I never knew that life was loaded... I only found it out when I was down upon my knees... Looking for my life.

    How personal and yet so universal

  7. R.... R....

    Was listening to the great CD earlier and this song hit me big time. When one has been given a death sentence, you look at things from a different perspective. I have 4 incurable medical conditions

    R.... R....

    I hope the tests and doctors are wrong. My husband passed away not long ago..2 incurable conditions. We tried to find something to enjoy in each day. It was not always easy. I wish you the best, serenity and happiness and a miracle!

    R.... R....

    @brujaderio Try to. Right now I am finishing up my updated Sales lists. Had to spend $45 to another doctor earlier. Music, memories an meditation helps.. Plus making videos. I just turned 65 an have never known what it is to be healthy. Doctor said I would not make it past 12. Fooled them..Pray that I can find an affordable place to live and sale 640 items.

    R.... R....

    @brujaderio I have had COPD also mainly due to smoking and so far i am in the safe zone as far as oxygen. Have two very sore spots if i take a deep breath. So lung doctor has put me on two new meds. Just lost my second friend 4 months ago from the same thing. I know that it is incurable and i have had it for over 10 years. No marathon for me.

    Grandmaster George!

  20. F.... M....

    If you're looking for your life, go to TruthContest◙com and read ~The Present~

    F.... M....

    How prescient of you to post "TruthContest" on a song from "Brainwashed"!

  21. L.... L....

    This song is about the '99's assault on him & Olivia at the hands of that deranged man, who nearly deprived him of the possibility of dying peacefully, as he had worked all his life to do. George never felt sorry for himself about his terminal illness and  the sufferings he had to endure because of it. 

    L.... L....

    This is a precious song, because it's one of the few songs on "Braiwashed" that truly belongs to his later production. Nearly all the others were  written, and in some cases even recorded,  as early as mid 80s- early 90s.

    L.... L....

    +Li Lise
    It sounds to me more like talking about how he felt after being diagnosed with cancer, especially when it was apparent that it was a quite aggressive one... <>.. Well.. at the time he was nearly murdered, he didn't only hung with birds and bees... He already knew the end of his life on earth was near..

  22. R.... H....

    Happy Birthday ,Om Hare Om Gopala Krishna

  23. M.... v....

    George Geweldig Wonderful  Thank You  Marijn

  24. P.... ....

    I remember writing a letter to dear sri George Hari - son years back when he was so desperately ill with the cancer . I was crying like a waterfall as I wrote it , of course I never sent it but my heart felt lighter for having written it ... Thank you Krishna for giving us this wonderful gift of the life of George Harrison ......... R.I.P . George 

  25. j.... ....

    This beautiful song touches me in the same way John's "Watching the Wheels" does. A very personal story of a personal & sometimes scary journey. I love all the songs on Brainwashed, but Looking for my Life is my # 1. Thank you for posting.

    j.... ....

    I agree with you, literally!!

  26. j.... ....

    .....for John,it was "Watching the Wheels".....for George, it was this beautiful jewel of life's experience in a song.

  27. m.... m....

    Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, I perpetually cast into the ocean of material existence, into various demoniac species of life.

  28. M.... C....

    morley..he is scum !! I'll report him for being so vulgar.

  29. j.... ....

    FrlghtWolf What's up with you're typing? You know the stupid skip line thing? Are you just stupid or are your keyboard broken and you can't buy a new one?

  30. F.... O....

    poor that wolf.always forever alone.

  31. m.... ....

    This psycho has a hundred screen names and he obsessively trolls Harrison under all of them Been doing it for years too. His real problems is that he's never had sex with a female. Or even a male for that matter. He really should be committed.

    m.... ....

    Could FlacidHouse be one. That person goes on just to argue.

  32. M.... C....

    Hare..frightwolf why can't you leave this page?ask your inconscient...jajajajaja

  33. L.... W....

    I never knew that things exploded. WOW!

  34. D.... ....

    You just seem lonely and scared in this big bad world. Reaching out whatever way you can. I'm just here to help.

  35. J.... C....

    É sempre bom ouvir boa música

  36. D.... ....

    It's like arguing with a tape recording. Or an answering machine. Eventually one of us will get bored. (That's probably going to be me) ;)

  37. D.... ....

    No. This is bullshit. Contempt requires you do a little more work than repeating yourself with the same diatribe every place you go. Right now you look to me like one of those dudes ranting on a public street corner, repeating the same thing over and over again. THE END IS COMING THE END IS COMING. You entertain me so much I think I'm going to follow you and the multiple accounts you have everywhere you go. Just for kicks. Cuz I like you that much. You have a new subscriber! Congrats!

  38. G.... ....

    addressed to TwoUselessLegs,
    you're so smart, learning how to cut and paste, good job. now, use that knowledge and look up whatever shit you want, try copying these. 'one direction' 'justin bieber' 'imafag.com'. that last one's a good website for guys like you, it's a place where you can meet with other imbiciles to discuss your favorite topics of low intellect.

    -????? ???????

  42. A.... ....

    then don't watch the video.

  43. L.... S....

    I can't listen to this song without crying

  44. a.... ....

    This song makes me feel like throwing away my cell phone

  45. C.... A....

    Todas las glorias al Señor Govinda
    Recuerdo con amor al Vaishnava George Harrison
    desde México con amor y justicia.
    OM HHARE HARI OM

  46. P.... S....

    looking for my life ...buen video y mejor cancion y pregunto , los wachi???? que??? por favor se fue un musico genial y se quedan estos no se puede asi ,,por siempre george

  47. T.... C....

    @TwoUselessLegs you're actually funny but i just dont understand why george harrison? How about JUSTIN BIEBER (fuck him)

  48. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs Lectured others on Wisdom? Where are you getting this? Sure, at the beginning, as a 20-something newly spiritual being, he was a bit overbearing. I have met many people in my life who, full of the spirit, go a little overboard and make you want to smack them, but they mellow out. Your family and friends know you best. I wouldn't judge someone by a video clip from the eighties. Paul, George and Ringo mended fences. You have trouble separating fact and fiction.

  49. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs I already watched it. Wasn't that interview from the eighties? We don't know what went on behind the scenes. I'm not going to judge. I don't judge Paul McCartney and John Lennon for stuff they said about each other and George. John was 'Mr. Peace," and he called Paul a c@%t, it's right there on film in "Imagine...John Lennon." You must not be very deep. People are not one-dimensional, if they're interesting and have LIVED. George never named himself "The Quiet One." Media name.

    L.... J....

    Laura Jenkins
    Paul is a c@%t.

  50. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs Ask Dhani and Olivia how they feel...obviously you must have known George better than his own family, right? What a judgmental person you are.

  51. L.... J....

    @TCampman96 I know...it seems a bit sicko to me.

  52. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs: Where do you get off calling him an ASS? He might have been overzealous when he first discovered his spiritual side (it happens!), and being young as he was he might have been a bit heavy-handed about it. But the fascinating thing about him is that he grew and changed over the years. He found what was important, but constantly struggled with temptations and was open about it. I don't know where you're getting your info..ask his many friends and his family how THEY feel.

  53. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs Hmm...that's not how his friends, family or most of his fans see him. He didn't seem arrogant at all. And if you have really read anything of substance about George Harrison, you'd know he didn't put himself on a pedestal at ALL, he saw himself as a GARDENER. He saw himself as flawed as well.. And I think it is YOU who has the problem, you have a unhealthy obsession with hating George. Harrison. So you hate him. We happen to disagree.

  54. T.... C....

    @TwoUselessLegs must be obsessed with ol Georgie, I've seen people arguing with him on multiple Harrison videos...George would've felt like this was a success lol

  55. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs George made those comments in the 1980s, didn't he? I sure hope I wouldn't be held to certain things I said back then. People change. Life tends to mellow out our bitterness, if we allow it to. George obviously did, as did Paul. Not only did they record together in the '90s, they were friends again. Fine, if you don't like George or his music.I still think it's troll-like to actively seek out George's videos and slam his music, his life, his fans.

  56. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs I think that the relationship between all of the Beatles was complicated: more like a family than friends. Throughout the Beatle years, George was viewed as the little brother, his song writing attempts brushed aside by Lennon, McCartney and George Martin. He gave the song "Something" to Joe Cocker first, that tells you something about how he felt about his chances of getting respect.

  57. L.... J....

    @Ijustmadethistocmmt The guy is a Troll.

  58. L.... J....

    @FrlghtWolf He wasn't perfect, and he was the first to admit that he succumbed to life's temptations. He was kind to people. When the owner of the local plant nursery told him that business was slow, he practically bought every plant in the place. His friends treasured him. Paul Simon said that he had "something special as a human being." He and Olivia have worked to feed children, help Romanian orphans, etc, etc...

  59. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs I guess you were there, huh. You lived with the Harrisons, then? You were witness to all of their struggles and happiness?

  60. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs Wow. What a bitter person. You have an unhealthy obsession with George Harrison. You spend a hell of a lot of time trolling every Harrison video posted. Kinda sick.

  61. L.... J....

    @TwoUselessLegs You're a troll who obviously doesn't know much about George Harrison. I also think that you and "FrightWolf" are the same person.

  62. D.... T....

    Let's get this straight. Are you trying to rip on George's legacy simply because you don't like him or because he genuinely made mistakes? The way you phrased your last comment is riddled with more anti-George sentiment than anti-hypocrisy.

  63. D.... H....

    @TwoUselessLegs How do you know?.. were you there in his life, maybe he didn't like being hooked on tobacco..think before you judge...peace out.

  64. D.... T....

    @TwoUselessLegs So you're saying that you can only value life if you don't have vices or do things that could shorten it? With that reasoning, I think we should all get off of YouTube at this very moment, exercise and go on vigorous diets. Posting "hate comments" on YouTube isn't really looking for life, either.

  65. A.... G....

    GRANDE GEORGE, TE TENDRÉ SIEMPRE EN MI RECUERDO, COMO BEATLE Y COMO PERSONA.

  66. b.... ....

    Buen disco de Harrison

  67. l.... c....

    I cannot believe 'Brainwashed" is almost 10 years old! That is such a great album!

  68. A.... S....

    Beautiful & Beautiful George...Thankyou dear Mac....Anita..

  69. V.... ....

    Really nice video.
