It's love I'm after
North, South, East and West I've gone in my quest
Far, wide, high and low, this one thing I know
It's love I'm after

I don't want to be a millionaire
The only thing on Earth for which I care
Is love, bah-dap-pah-dap-aah-doo

For love has laughter
For love and laughter I'd give all that I possess
Don't you know the only name for happiness is love, love, love

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
Feel the way I do
Because each one of them believes
He'll find somebody like you

It's love I'm after, love I'm after
Love, it's love I'm after
It may make me rise or make me fall
But it's love I'm after, after all
