The Isley Brothers
Seek and You Shall Find
I used to ask my mother
Would I ever find true love?
She would tell me (True love is hard to find)
But I traveled on
And everyone I came upon
I stopped to ask and they would say
(True love is hard to find)
The years have passed
I'm still all alone
But no longer do I ask
I place my faith in five little words
From somewhere in the past
Those words were: Seek and you shall find
There's no denying: Seek and you shall find
Oh, sometimes I get so lonely
It seems useless to go on
But I know somewhere
True love is waiting there
So I keep holding on
Oh, I manage to struggle on
'Cause I know if I keep on trying
Oh, there's no denying, if you just
Seek and you shall find
There's no denying: Seek and you shall find
There's no happy ending to this story
And I'm telling you: Love still hopes you find
You must believe somewhere
True love is waiting there
Keep holding on
You gotta keep on keeping on
If you keep on, keep on trying
Oh, there's no denying, if you just
Seek and you shall find
Oh, it don't matter what you looking for
Seek and you shall find
Oh, it might be right around the corner
Seek and you shall find
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Seek and you shall find
You gotta find it one day, all you gotta do is
Seek and you shall find
