I went looking for a new love
A different kind of true love
Who would treat me right
Day and night
Voice:
He baby I went looking too, and I found out that there is no other love for
me but you. Just me and you.

I went looking for a new love
A different kind of true love
Who’s gonna treat me right
Day and night
Then I found what I was after
Now my life is filled with laughter
I found you love
I was lost with no direction
And my life was one big question
I was down and out
Filled with doubt
Now I know just where I’m going
And my happiness is showing
I found you love
I found you love
I found the new love
Wonderful and true
He loves to spend my money
Likes to call me honey
I’m gonna please him
Gonna hug and squeeze him
He’s gonna love me madly
I’m gonna to love him gladly
We’re gonna hold love while we can
Do, do do do do do do do
Do, do do do do do do do

Who’s gonna treat me right (every day every night)
Then I found what I was after
Now my life is filled with laughter

I found the new love
Wonderful and true
He loves to spend my money
And he loves to call me ho ho honey

Some kind of new love
Who’s gonna treat me right
He’s gonna give me love every night
