Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm tired of waiting
An' closing my eyes
I'm asking myself
Why is it all my horizons
Are so far away?
[Verse 2]
I look in the mirror
Don't like what I see
In my reflection
A stranger is staring at me
Looking for love
[Verse 3]
The love of a woman
The needs of a man
I try so hard to believe
But I don't understand
The search goes on
[Verse 4]
But over the mountains
Across the sea
I know love is waiting
I hear it calling to me
Calling my name
[Verse 5]
I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart, yeah
[Verse 6]
Alone again, it's always the same
Well, I've just been marking my time
Since the day I was born
With no one to blame
[Verse 7]
The candle is burning
It's way down low
I just need someone to show me the way
The way to go, which way to go
[Verse 8]
I'm looking for love all around me
Looking for love to surround me
The love that I need
To rescue the state of my heart
[Verse 9]
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
[Verse 10]
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
[Verse 11]
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love
To rescue the state of my heart
[Verse 12]
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
I'm looking for love
An' finding only heartache
[Verse 13]
I'm looking for love to rely on
Looking for love, a shoulder to cry on
I'm looking for love to rescue the state of my heart
[Verse 14]
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
[Verse 15]
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
To rescue the state of my heart
