Remember what the holy book said
If you seek, you will find
If you se-ek, you will fin-nd
Well, I’ve been searching for, for true love
Gotta keep ride on searching till I find
And nothing good comes easy, this I know
Gotta keep ride on searching till I find
Well, I’ve been searching for, for true love
And I will keep searching till I find
