Find my love

{spoken (to band):} one, two, three four

r-r-r-r-r-r-hey
{spoken (to audience):} you have to sing that, high bit

cats are crying, gates are slamming
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

{spoken:} this bit
on nights like these
feel like falling to my knees
feel like calling “heaven please—

find my love
{spoken:} will you sing that bit for me, it’s too high
{find my love}
ah, won’t you, won’t you
find my love, find my love
find my love

well I, 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 these
feel like falling to my knees
feel like calling “heaven please—

find my love
find my love
find my love
find my love

somewhere out there there must be
a boy for this girl
could be anywhere, could be next door
or other side of the world

call on my radio give them 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 these
feel like falling to my knees
feel like calling “heaven please—

find my love
{find my love
find my love
find my love
}
{spoken:} Mr Graham Henderson on accordion

– ’nother noodly accordion solo

somewhere out there there must be
a boy for this girl
could be anywhere, could be next door
or other side of the world

call up my radio give them 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 these
feel like falling to my knees
feel like calling “heaven please—

find my love
find my love, find my love
find my love, find my love
find my love, find my love
find my love, find my love
find my love” oh-eeh—
{find my love}
find my love
{spoken:} dancin’ Graham?

– triplets, accordion solo
