The Hunt is On!
Across the world, the hunt is on!
Romance is keenly sought.
Foul loneliness, you fiend, begone,
So that you come to nought!
Begone, I say, good riddance, too,
For love is everything.
But when true love seems overdue,
What sorrows that can bring!
Lord, here I pray by day and night.
God, send just ONE to me!
Just ONE in whom to take delight!
God, how hard can that be?
I don't ask much, but come on, Lord!
I've waited for so long.
Why should my burden be ignored?
What am I doing wrong?
I've saved my money year-by-year.
No holidays at all.
So will my sweetheart soon appear
Or will You simply stall?
I'm so impatient! Help me, please!
I can't hold out much more.
I'm begging You.
I'm on my knees!
Not bad at ninety-four
