Bongos Ikwue Still Searching Lyrics :
Men I’ve been searching for… for true love,
Gotta keep right on searching till I find.
Nothing good comes easy, this I know.
Gotta keep right on searching till I find.
‘Said I’ve been searching for… for true love,
Gotta keep right on searching till I find.
Nothing good comes easy, this I know.
