I Can't Find

Every now and then
Somebody comes into my life
Oh, and for a little while
It seems theyre the answer to my dreams
To my prayer
As sudden as they come
They start to fade
Like floating smoke rings
Oh, how can they stay with me when
Theyre only penciled in
Youre always there
So all my love
If you can find it in your heart
To do just one thing for me
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Come back (Come back), come back
I dont wanna look
When I know where
Just what I need is
Oh, honey, youve got it with you
So what else can I do
But come to you, my love and say
Take me in your arms
Hold me close
I need to feel you
Oh, to me theres nothin like your touch
Its what I need so much
Oh, yes, I do, my love
So if you feel the need
To ever be with me again
Dont let another moment pass
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Come back (Come back), come back
(I cant find) My way to a very special somewhere
(I cant find) Myself cause without you, Im just out there
(I cant find) That person I wanna put that much in
(I cant find) Anybody like you who makes touchin more than touchin
Ive been lookin
Theres just nobody around, ooh
No sense lookin
For who can never be found
Mmm...
So if you feel the need
To ever be with me again
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it
Come back (Come back), come back (Come back)
Come back (Come back), come back
(I cant find) Sleep at night, Im either watchin TV or walkin
(I cant find) Any conversation that means more to me than talkin
(I cant find) Satisfaction even when I do surrender
(I cant find) Anybody like you who makes tender more than tender
Ive been lookin
Theres just nobody around, oh
No sense lookin
For who can never be found, oh, oh...
(I cant find) Anybody like you who gets my full attention
(I cant find) Anybody who means enough for me to mention
(I cant find) That person
