I was looking for love in all the wrong places And never found a cure I was hoping that it could be sent from Heaven A love so sweet and pure In all of my years I've seen many faces That dwindled by the way In all of my fears it left me lonely With tears here to stay I learned the way of love I learned to pray for love If you see it in a lifetime Learn to stay in love I had fallen so deep in the depths of passion My heart about to drown Fulfilling my need to have a companion But no one was around In all of my guilt I feel redemption It wasn't all of my fault The home that I built was real inside me But love was never caught I learned the way of love I learned to pray for love If you see it in a lifetime Learn to stay in love If you feel like you'll never be one of them Who discovers a love for eternity Continue to be patient and keep you heart Safe from those who might tear it all apart And learn the way of love, oh, woah I learned the way of love I learned to pray for love If you see it hold it, grab it, keep it Stay in love, stay in love I learned the way of love I learned to pray for love If you see it in a lifetime Learn to stay in love I learned the way of love I learned to pray for love And i know it may not come easy And na na na na, no no no I learned to stay in love
