"Seek And You Shall Find" lyrics

Oh, I used to ask my mother
Would I ever find true love?
She would tell me
(True love) Mhm (is hard to find)
Oh yeah (Mhm)
So I traveled on
Everyone I came upon, I would stop and ask
They would tell me
(True love is hard to find, mhm)
That's what they would say
Though years have 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 (Lonely)
But then I remember
Somewhere true love is waiting there
So I'll keep on holding on (Holding on)
Oh, and 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, woo
Woo, oh

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 gonna keep on keeping on (Holding on)
You know that I'm gonna keep holding on (Keeping on)
'Cause I know 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
Oh, oh
Seek and you shall find
If it's love that you're looking for
Seek, oh, and you shall find
It might be right around the corner
Seek—
