lyrics

(Chorus)
Stories told about it
There's been so many songs about it
Done read so many poems about it
I never want to be without it
I never want to be without it

Stories told about it
Searched high and low to be around ya
I thank my God I finally found you
I never want to be without you
I never want to be without you

‘Cause I’m tryin to find
What I been tryin to find

Hum..

(Verse 1)
My friendly friend said to me
Take my hand and you can see
I don't want to go
I don't want to go
I don't want to follow that lead

He left me a hand out for the free
While I wondered should I believe him
want to go
I don't want to go
If you gon turn around and leave

‘Cause I’m trying to find
What I been tryin to find

Love, love, love, love,
Love, love, love...

(Chorus)

I... was tryin to find
what I been tryin to find
Some kind of love that would last for all time
Oh and there he was, he looked me right in the eye

Love, love, love, love,
Love, love, love...

(Verse 2)
My friendly friend came to me
When I (was) heavied by deceiving
Was so bright
So simple and kind
Turned out was exactly what I needed

Still left me his hand out for the free
Reached down and carried me to believing
Until I know now
What I know
A love can bloom so preciously
