lyrics

We all need something to hold
We all need some kind of love
I've been hoping for a lover
Maybe it'll happen today

I need a sweetheart, won't you send her first class
I'm in a hurry, and I paid for express

I put a note into a bottle
Then I sent it on down the river
Where it goes, nobody knows
I might get lucky, my picture's inside

I need a sweetheart, won't you send her first class
I'm in a hurry, and I paid for express

My phone is ringing, this could be it
Woman on the line, she likes my picture
I said she could, she said she would
She's got a ticket on the next airline

I need a sweetheart, send her first class
I'm in a hurry, I paid for express

We all need something to hold
We all need some kind of love
I've been hoping for a lover
Maybe it'll happen today

I need a sweetheart, won't you send her first class
I'm in a hurry and I paid for express
I'm in a hurry and I paid for express
