[Verse 1]
I want a love that doesn't compromise
I want a love that hits between the eyes
I want a love like a sunrise to my dark
I want to feel something deep inside
I want to heal, don't wanna have to hide
I want to read, no just fantasize with my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's always saying to look over your shoulder
The grass is always greener
That should do what I'm told

[Chorus]
I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts
Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old

[Verse 2]
I got it wrong, one too many times
They play along and never seem to mind
I need a song but never learn the lines
Oh, no

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's always saying to look over your shoulder
The grass is always greener
That should do what I'm told

[Chorus]
I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts
Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old

[Bridge]
Oh, it's not love, it's not love
If you don't have to struggle
Oh, not enough, not enough
If it don't cause you trouble

[Chorus]
I'm gonna search
And when the night is young
Even if it hurts
Even when my fight's gone
I'm gonna wait for the right one
I'm gonna wait for the love to grow old
