Cats are crying, gates are slammin' The wind is howling 'round the house tonight I'm as lonely as a boat out on the sea When the night is black and the tide is high Oh, on nights like this (I) feel like falling to my knees Fell like calling "heaven, please" Find my love, find my love Find my love, find my love Oh, well, I turn the dial on my radio Trying to find an all-night station Want to hear a song I know, A song about my situation Oh, on nights like this Find my love Somewhere out there, There must be a boy for this girl Could be anywhere, could be next door Or the other side of the world! Call up the radio, give 'em my number, Tell them to put it out on the air There must be someone, there must be someone like me Sitting lonely as a boat out there Oh, on nights like this Find my love
