[Verse 1]
They say just once in life
You find someone that's right
But the world looks so confused
I can't tell false from true

[Chorus]
And love's so hard to find
In this state of mind
Oh I hope I'll know him
I hope I'll know him
If he's ever near

[Verse 2]
Well it seemed the time had come
I thought you were the one
When I looked into your eyes
It never looked like lies

[Chorus]
And love's so hard to see
That when it's in front of me
Oh I hope I'll know it
I hope I'll know it
If it's ever near

[Instrumental Verse]

[Chorus]
'Cause love's so hard to see
And when it's in front of me
Oh I hope I'll know it
I hope I'll know it
If it's ever near

[Verse 3]
Well I know that in my time
I'll have it sweet and fine
But it won't add up to much
Unless I feel his touch

[Chorus]
'Cause love's so hard to find
I guess I'll just give up trying
But I hope I'll know him
I hope I'll know him
If he's ever near
