Seek and You Shall Find

Oh, I used to ask my mother
Would I ever find true love?
She would tell me (true love is hard to find)
Oh, yeah

So I travelled on
Everyone I came upon
I would stop and ask
They would tell me (true love is hard to find)
That's what they would say

Through the years that passed
And I'm all alone
No longer do I ask
I just place my faith in five little words
From way back in my past

My mama said
Seek and you shall find
That's what mama said
Seek and you shall find

Sometimes I get so lonely (lonely)
It seems useless to go on
But then I remember
Somewhere true love has waited there

So I'll keep on holding on (holding on)
But I'll keep on keeping on (keeping on)
'Cause I know if I keep trying
I can't lose 'cause there's no denying

Seek and you shall find
That's what my mama said
Seek and you shall find
Help me, somebody

Now there is no happy ending
To this story I'm telling you
But I remember somewhere
True love, I know it's waiting there

I'm gon' keep on keeping on (moving on)
You know that I'm gonna keep holding on (keeping on)
'Cause I now if I keep trying
I can't lose 'cause there's no denying

Seek and you shall find
I know that's what my mama said
Seek and you shall find

Seek and you shall find
If it's love that you're looking for
Seek and you shall find
It might be right around the corner
Seek...
