Mmm tell me
Tell, tell, tell -- tell me
Mmm tell me
Tell, tell, tell -- tell me
Who needs the aggravation?
I think I'm running out of patience
I can't take any more heartbreak
Why be a cinderella
When you can't find a fella?
It's a nightmare, it's not fair
I need the kind of lovin'
Hotter than my momma's oven
I'm on fire with a love's desire
Tell me when am I gonna find true love?
When am I gonna find true love?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find true love?
I ask myself the question
Ooh tell me
Somebody tell me
Ah ah, I'm in a situation
Even with the going inflation
No good men; can't spread myself that thin
I need a magic potion
To put my love back in motion
My confusion is no illusion
I need the right connection
I'm moving in the wrong direction
To enhance a lasting romance
Tell me when am I gonna find true love?
When am I gonna find true love?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find true love?
I ask myself the question
Tell me when am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find true love?
I ask myself the question
Tell me when am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find true love?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find?
When am I gonna find true love?
Ooh tell me
Somebody tell me
True love
True love
Oh somebody tell me
Somebody tell me
Tell, tell me
Tell, tell, tell -- tell me
Tell me
Tell, tell, tell -- tell me, tell me
Oh I need you to tell me, tell me
Oh somebody tell me, tell me
Oh I want to know, tell me
Somebody tell me, tell me
Oh tell me, tell me
Oh true love
I need true love
Tell me, tell me
Oh won't somebody tell me, tell me
Oh tell me, tell me
