People told me I should write a love song Girl you sound so angry, You could use some variation But I'm lonely Negative relations I've been hurt so many times I don't have the patience But I've wished for so long For someone to come and show me Lead by example 'Cause I've been waiting I've tried every age I'm so tired of the game I wanna be somebody's girl Would you show me the way? What if I never find and I'm left behind? Should I keep hoping for love? What if I'm still the same? Status doesn't change? Gotta keep hoping for love What is love? What is love? What is love? Somebody show me What is love? What is love? What is love? 'Cause if you told me What is love? What is love? What is love? I wouldn't be lonely (what is love?) Please show me I've had blind dates Hooked up with some real flakes I've gone out with church boys Musician's are the worst I've tried so hard 'Cause I'm just so die hard Tried my best to play the part Wish you could see inside But I've wished for so long For someone to come and show me Lead by example 'Cause I've been waiting I've tried every age I'm so tired of the game I wanna be somebody's girl Would you show me the way? What if I never find And I'm left behind? Should I keep hoping for love? What if I'm still the same? Status doesn't change? Gotta keep hoping for love What is love? What is love? What is love? Somebody show me What is love? What is love? What is love? 'Cause if you told me What is love? What is love? What is love? I wouldn't be lonely (what is love?) Please show me, what is love Na na na What is love? Na na na na na Na na I've been alone for the past three years On Valentine's Day Christmas is no exception Birthday's with naughty presents Been back and forth, same action I just need this to happen I'll be singing love's praises If you would show me What if I never find And I'm left behind? Should I keep hoping for love? What if I'm still the same? Status doesn't change? Gotta keep hoping for love What is love? What is love? What is love? Somebody show me What is love? What is love? What is love? 'Cause if you told me What is love? What is love? What is love? I wouldn't be lonely (what is love?) Please show me What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love? What is love?
