Well, look at that dog digging in the yard What you think he's after now His head is sagging and his tail is dragging He's one discontented hound Now he's staring out the fence and it doesn't make sense What could he be thinking of He's like a young girl waiting for the phone to ring Everybody's looking for the same thing And that's love Well, people when you talk about happiness It's a matter of degrees I've got it better than the other guy You've got it better than me It's a house with heat, some food to eat And a roof up above But there's still something missing It's that hugging and kissing Everybody's looking for the same thing, sis
And that's love, that's love You can't get it in the lost and found It's not hidden in the closet or buried in the ground It'll make you sing "I've got the world on a string" That's why everybody's looking for the same old thing Gambler's always drawing for a winning card Rooster's out looking for a hen Everybody's wishing on a shooting star Me and the marines just want a few good men But it's a well known fact that it leads the pack When push comes to shove And it may sound funny but I don't mean money It makes the dark clouds lift and the days all sunny Everybody's looking for the same thing, honey And that's love, that's love, that's love
