Berikut lirik lengkapnya:
I spent a lifetime lookin’ for you
Single’s bars and good time lovers were never true
Playing a fools game, hopin’ to win
And tellin’ those sweet lies and losin’ again
Lookin’ for love in all the wrong places
Lookin’ for love in too many faces
Searchin’ her eyes, lookin’ for traces
Of what I’m dreamin’ of
Hopin’ to find a friend and a lover
I’ll bless the day I discover
Another heart lookin’ for love
I was alone then, no love in site
I did everything I could to get me through the night
Don’t know where it started or where it might end
I’d turn to a stranger just like a friend
Lookin’ for love in all the wrong places
Lookin’ for love in too many faces
Searchin’ her eyes, lookin’ for traces
Of what I’m dreamin’ of
Hopin’ to find a friend and a lover
I’ll bless the day I discover
