Everlasting Love Lyrics By Howard Jones

    he wasn’t looking for a pretty face
    she wasn’t searching for the latest style
    he didn’t want someone who walked straight off the tv
    she needed someone with an interior smile

    she wasn’t looking for a cuddle in the back seat
    he wasn’t looking for a fiveminute thrill
    she wasn’t thinking of tomorrow or of next week
    this vacancy he meant to permanently fill

    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    back in the world of disposable emotion
    in the climate of temporary dreams
    he wasn’t looking for a notch on his bedpost
    a love to push pull and burst at the seams

    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    is this love worth waiting for
    something special something pure

    coda
    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    is this love worth waiting for
    bitterness will die for sure
    something special something pure
    is this love worth waiting for

    is this love worth waiting for
    i need an everlasting love
    bitterness will die for sure
    something special something pure
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    is this love worth waiting for

    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    i need an everlasting love
    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    i need an everlasting love
    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    i need a friend and a lover divine
    an everlasting precious love
    an everlasting precious love
    wait for it wait for it give it some time
    wait for it wait for it give it some time

    i need an everlasting love
    i need a friend and a lover divine
