Counterpart - Acoustic

In this world, we're all in search for a counterpart
 But how can I decide what that is if I don't even know what I want?
 Mother told me when you grow up you will understand
 Love's true meaning, but here I am and I can't pretend
 That I've seen even a glimpse of that famed allure
 In my dreams, there's someone out there with a cure
 Can I convince myself that you're out there somewhere
 When my heart knows better?
 Taking my chances in a reckless pursuit of love
 I think I've found it, then I realize it's not enough
 Another failure tells me I should have known
 Not to hold faith in my feelings, they're always misleading me
 So tell me, where will I go?
 As amorous sparks pull me in
 The thrill of the chase clouds my mind again
 My caution has all been swept up by the wind
 And I know I don't stand a chance
 Cause when the fire dies
 Affection suffers its cold demise
 It happens every time
 I'm stricken with feelings I can't keep alive
 Can anybody here help me bury my doubt?
 What if I find you and you don't even want me?
 Where will I go?
