Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping

I'm not talking about someone

Who's scared of promises or keeping 'em

I'm just looking for a love to stand the test of time

I've been looking for someone to be all mine

[Verse 2]

I had too much lonely

I need a one and only

Someone I can care about and call my own

Faithful to true tradition

Without an intermission

We'll still be together when the kids are grown

[Verse 3]

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping

I'm not talking about someone

Who's scared of promises or keeping 'em

I'm just looking for a love to stand the test of time

I've been looking for someone to be all mine

[Verse 4]

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping

I'm not talking about someone

Who's scared of promises or keeping 'em

I'm just looking for a love to stand the test of time

I've been looking for someone to be all mine

[Verse 5]

I've been looking for someone to be all mine

I've been looking for someone to be all

[Verse 6]

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping

I'm not talking about someone

Who's scared of promises or keeping 'em

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping

I'm not talking about someone

Who's scared of promises or keeping 'em

I've been looking for a love

Someone to hold as I lay sleeping
