Many a man has gone away
Many a man has gone astray
Searching for the treasures of a love that’s true
I’m hoping that my treasure can be you
And I believe, I believe that

The further you look, the less you see
I’m hoping you’ll be the treasure meant for me

I’ve seen men carry their hopes from town to town
Trying to track lost treasures found
Some find true love before their hopes are gone
Others lose hope and they’ll have to sho-nuff now move on
And I can hear them saying, I say go

The further you look, the less you see
I’m hoping you’ll be the treasure meant for me

Oh, time for traveling on
Wondering if they’ve done something wrong
And you’ll be calling me over
But if you’ll be mine, my searching is all over because

The further you look, the less you see
I’m hoping you’ll be the treasure meant for me
And I know it, I know, and I know
The further you look, the less you see
And I’m hoping you’ll be the treasure meant for me
And I believe, I believe, I believe
The further you look, the less you see
And I’m hoping you’ll be the treasure meant for me
