(Marc Beeson/Don Pfrimmer)
You’ve been whisperin things I’ve never heard
Love’s been redefined, it’s more than just a word
I never thought I’d fall again
But roads divide and new roads begin
So it could take a lifetime to find someone like you
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
Once you start it you can’t turn back
I get the feelin that I’m lookin at
The answer to my prayers
Cause when you lay me down you set me free
My heart stops when you touch me
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
Each time it felt so right
It always turned out wrong
I know it was you
I wanted all along
I thought it was impossible, but I think I found my miracle
I only needed someone who needs me like you do
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
Once you start it you can’t turn back
I get the feelin that I’m lookin at
the answer to my prayers
Cause when you lay me down you set me free
My heart stops when you touch me
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
I want an earth shaker
A risk taker
One hell of a love maker
Somebody that wants nobody but me
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
Cause when you lay me down you set me free
My heart stops when you touch me
I’ve been lookin for a love
I’ve been lookin for a love like that
Two young lovers with their bodies on fire
Achin’ to swim that river of desire
Leavin’ innocence there on the bank by their clothes
A man holdin’ on to a woman lettin’ go
There’s a man with a bottle on the other side of town
Swimmin’ in a mem-ry that he can’t drown
Lord it ain’t sunk in that she ain’t comin’ home
A man holdin’ on to a woman lettin’ go
Chorus
His heart is tellin him
To hang on for dear life
Cuz deep down he knows
She’s lettin’ go for good this time
There’s a daddy walkin’ his daughter down the aisle
Fightin’ back tears and forcin’ a smile
For 22 years he’s watched her grow
Now he’s a man holdin’ on to a woman lettin’ go
In the hill valley home there’s a feeble old man
And he’s holdin’ on to a fragile old hand
The angels are comin’ to carry her home
A man holdin’ on to a woman lettin’ go
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Verse One
