[Verse 1]
I want a love I can see (Wah-doo-wah)
It's the only kind of love I think is real (Wah-doo-wah)
Don't want to be going by something I've heard (Wah-doo-wah)
'Cause baby, actions speak louder than words (Wah-doo-wah)
I want a love that is mine (Wah-doo-wah)
In the rain it's always sun, sun, sunshine (Wah-doo-wah)
A love to keep me warm when it's cold (Wah-doo-wah)
That's the kind of lovin' that will never grow old (Wah-doo-wah)
[Refrain]
Oh-oh, don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
Oh-oh-oh, don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
Don't you know I want a love
(Don't you know? Don't you know?)
[Verse 2]
I want a love I can see (Wah-doo-wah)
The kind of lovin' you could give to me (Wah-doo-wah)
That's the kind of kissin' that will make me melt (Wah-doo-wah)
The kind of lovin' that can really be felt (Wah-doo-wah)
I want a love that is mine (Wah-doo-wah)
In the rain it's always sun, sun, sunshine (Wah-doo-wah)
A love to keep me warm when it's cold (Wah-doo-wah)
That's the kind of lovin' that will never grow old (Wah-doo-wah)
