Oh I used to ask my mother
|
Would I ever find true love?
|
She would tell me, true love is hard to find
|
|
So I traveled on
|
Everyone I came upon
|
I would stop and ask
|
They would tell me
|
True love is hard to find
|
That's what they would say
|
|
The years that passed
|
I'm all alone
|
No longer do I ask
|
I just place my faith
|
In five little words
|
From way back in my past
|
My mama said
|
Seek and you shall find
|
That's what mama said
|
Seek and you shall find
|
|
Sometimes I get so lonely
|
It seems useless to groan
|
But then I remember
|
Somewhere true love has waited there
|
But I'll keep on holding on
|
Keep on keeping on
|
But I know that I keep trying
|
I can lose
|
Seek and you shall find
|
That's what my mama said
|
Seek and you shall find
|
Help me somebody!
|
Oooh
|
Oooh
|
Oh
|
|
There is no happy ending
|
To this story I'm telling you
|
But I remember somewhere
|
True love, I know it's waiting there
|
I'm gonna keep on keeping on
|
You know that I'm gonna keep holding on
|
Cause I now if I keep trying
|
I can't lose, cause there's no denying
|
Seek and you shall find
|
I know that's what my mama said
|
Seek and you shall find
|
Ohhh
|
Seek and you shall find
|
If it's love that you're looking for
|
Seek and you shall find
|
It must be right around the corner
|
Seek...
