I need love, love, to ease my mind
I need to find, find, someone to call mine
But how many heartaches must I stand
Before I find a love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hangin' on
When I feel my strength, yeah, is almost gone
No I can't bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
These precious works keep me hangin'on
No, love, love, don't come easy
But I keep on waiting, anticipating
For that soft voice to talk to me at night
For some tender arms to hold me tight
I keep waiting, I keep on waiting
