GOTTA FIND SOMEBODY TO LOVE
(Elmo Russ)

as recorded by the Andrews Sisters & male trio
with Vic Schoen & his Orchestra
1951


Gotta find somebody, somebody to love,
Gotta find somebody, somebody to love,
Gotta find somebody who's tryin' to find
Somebody wantin' to love!

Love, love, love, love
Is everywhere but hard to find!
Oh love, love, love, love
Is often so near but so blind!

Gotta find somebody who's willin' to be,
Gotta find somebody who's willin' to be,
Gotta find somebody who's willin' to be
Only in love with me!

Oh love, love, love, love
Is everywhere but hard to find! (oh my love)
Oh my love, love, love, love
Is often so near but so blind!

Maybe you're the somebody waitin' for me,
Maybe I'm the somebody waitin' for you,
Maybe if we look at each other we'll see
I'm for you and you're for me!

Oh love, love, love, love
Is everywhere but hard to find! (oh my love)
Oh my love, love, love, love
Is often so near but so blind,
Is often so near but so blind,
Is often so near but so bli-i-i-i-nd!
