Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you feeling down and lonely?
Feeling like you can't go on
Just remember, love will find a way
Tell me, are you goin' through changes?
Time seems like it's passing by
Just believe that love will find a way
[Verse 2]
I see the tears you cry
I see the pain that's in your eyes
So many times you were so lonely
And no one seemed to care
But if your hopes for your tomorrows
Are drowning in your sorrows
Know your heart will show you the way
[Verse 3]
Are you trying to find a beginning
Or something just to hold onto?
Always know that love will find a way
Is it hard, this life you're living?
Does the world seem so unkind?
Don't you worry, love will find a way
[PreChorus]
Some say we've lost our way
Some say the world has gone astray
But if you know where you're going
There's nothing you can't do
'Cause problems will come and they will leave you
The world will try to deceive you
But the truth will always be in your soul
[Chorus]
Do you want some joy in your time?
Are you trying to find some peace of mind?
All you need to know is
Love will find a way
Are you looking for that place to go?
Where the truth is all you'll ever know
All you need to say is
Love, love will find a way
[Chorus]
Do you want some joy in your time?
Are you trying to find some peace of mind?
All you need to know is
Love will find a way
[Chorus]
Do you want some joy in your time?
Are you looking, baby?
Are you trying to find some peace of mind?
Hard to find
All you need to know is
Love will find a way
Are you looking for that place to go?
See the changes you've been going through
Where the truth is all you'll ever know
Tryin' to find yourself, but you need a clue
All you need to say is
Just remember
That love, love will find a way
[Chorus]
Do you want some joy in your time?
Just a little joy
Are you trying to find some peace of mind?
A little peace, babe
All you need to know is
Love, love will find a way
[Outro]
Do you want some joy in your time?
Oh babe, are you lookin'?
Are you trying to find some peace of mind?
Say you tryin' to find, baby
All you need to know is
Love will find a way
Are you looking for that place to go?
Where the truth is all you'll ever know
All you need to say is
