Songwriter: John Lennon Paul McCartney

I'm looking through you, where did you go?
I thought I knew you, what did I know?
You don't look different but you have changed
I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Your lips are moving, I cannot hear
Your voice is soothing but the words aren't clear
And you don't sound different, I've learned the game
I'm looking through you, you're not the same

Why, tell me why did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

You're thinking of me the same old way
You were above me, but not today
The only difference is you're down there
And I'm looking through you, and you're nowhere

Why, tell me why did you not treat me right?
Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight

I'm looking through you, where did you go?
I thought I knew you, what did I know?
And you don't look different but you have changed
Then I'm looking through you and you're not the same

God, baby, you've changed
I'm looking through you
Baby, you've changed
I'm looking through you
I'm looking through you
Now, baby, you've changed

The Wallflowers are a rootsy rock ‘n’ roll band formed in Los Angeles in 1989. The group is the brainchild of singer-songwriter Jakob Dylan, who came into the business with a rather unique blessing/ He’s Bob Dylan’s son. Despite frequent comparisons to his father, Jakob emerged as a talented artist in his own right. The group is best known for its second album, 1996’s multi-platinum Bringing Down the Horse, which spawned the hit singles “One Headlight,” “6th Avenue Heartache,” “Three Marlenas,” and “The Difference.”

In the years since Bringing Down the Horse, the group has released four (Breach) (2000), Red Letter Days (2002), Rebel, Sweetheart (2005), and Glad All Over (2012). Although Dylan, the lone constant member, has never matched the commercial success of his sophomore LP, he remains a respected figure with two solo albums to his credit.
