Lyrics Searchin' - Sly Stone, The Family Stone

Searchin'

Searchin' and seekin', never sleepin'
I’ve got to find me a man
I want no disguises, just surprises
Someone who I’ll understand
I don’t need a guy who spends only one night
Then tell me he’s got no more time
I’m looking for someone to share my life
I better move on down the line
Searchin', looking for love all the time I can
Searchin', looking for love, I’ve got to find a man
Some guys excite me but don’t invite me
They don’t even notice it seems
Oh I’m always waiting, anticipating
I long for the man of my dreams
He needn’t be handsome, have fortune or fame
He just gotta be sweet and kind
But there’s so many wanting or needing the same
I gotta move on down the line
Searchin', looking for love all the time I can (all the time I can)
Searchin', looking for love, I’ve got to find a man
Searchin' (searchin', yeah), looking for love every place I can (all the time I
can)
Searchin' (searchin', yeah), looking for love, I’ve got to find a man
Will I ever reach my goal
Will I ever get the chance
To live my life with just one man, oh-oh yeah
I thought by now I held the love I always wanted
But things are not the way I planned
I’m searchin' (I'm searchin', I’m searchin')
All the time I can
Hey, yeah, oh
I’m searchin', hey, oh
I’m Searchin' (all the time I can)
Every place I can, oh yeah (I'm searchin')
Hey, yeah, ooh-oh
I gotta find a man (Searchin')
Oh yeah, I gotta find a man (all the time I can)
I’m Searchin' (Searchin'), lookin' for love
Searchin' (Searchin', yeah), looking for love every place I can (all the time I
can)
Searchin' (Searchin', yeah), looking for love
I’ve got to find a man
