[Verse 1]
For those of us
Who would be alone tonight
I hope you find love
And if you've got somebody in your life
Then be glad you got love, oh-oh-oh...
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't let the games that people play
Destroy the dream you're dreaming of
You've got to keep your faith
Gotta find the thing you're searching for, yeah
[Chorus]
I really hope and pray
Someone will be there
You should know
What I wish most of all
I wish you love, love
Really wish you love
[Verse 2]
There's an evil wind blowing over Africa
It blows bitter love, yeah
But generations coming after us
I know they'll find better love, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't let the wrong they got
Destroy the dream you're dreaming of
We've only just begun, oh
To find the things we're searching for
[Chorus]
I pray the day will come
Heaven will heal all their hearts
Lord I hope and pray
And though we're worlds apart
I wish you love
Really do, I really wish you love
[Bridge]
Rejoice in love every morning
Before you rise
And if the sun refuse to shine
Believe in His word and heed His warning
He's on your side
He's on your side, if it's day or night
Even if you're wrong or right, oh-oh...
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll reach out a helping hand
Something to cling to if you should fall
[Chorus]
Well, I've been through it all
I wish you love, I really do
I really wish you love, oh, no
[Verse 3]
There's an angel watching over us (watching over us)
We die because of love, yeah
If you believe in His word and learn to trust
I know you'll find the greatest love
Greatest love
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you will understand
That it's not a dream you're dreaming of
This is the hope for man
Thing that we've been searching for
[Chorus]
Love Him the best you can
He'll always be there
And you should know
(He'll be there)
Summer, winter, spring, or fall
I, I wish you love, I really do
I really wish you love
Oh, Lord
Oh my sister, my brother
I really wish you, love, love
I wish for you, baby
I'm, I'm wishing you love
My sister, my brother...
For those of us
Who would be alone tonight
I hope you find love
And if you've got somebody in your life
Then be glad you got love, oh-oh-oh...
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't let the games that people play

You've got to keep your faith
Gotta find the thing you're searching for, yeah

Really wish you love
