I Finally Found What I've Been Searching For

(album: Zapp VI: Back By Popular Demand - 2002)

Listen, I know where you're at, but just...
Listen, I've been thinking, so... just, just listen to me

I finally found what I've been searching for
Everything that I've been praying for
And I will do all that a man should do
Because I thank God for blessing me with you (I thank God for it)
I finally found you, and I won't let go (I won't let go)
I finally found you, and girl, you should know
(Girl, you should know)
I'll give you my heart (I'll give you my heart)
I'll lay down my life (I'll lay down my life)
I want you to be my wife (be my wife)

The Bible says when a man finds a wife
He finds a good thing
And I know that I've found a good thing in you
But I don't wanna be the only one being blessed right now
I want God to show me how to be a blessing to you too
Because you've been a friend (you've been a friend)
A friend to the end (a friend to the end)
When I could not see, you believed in me
And you stood by me through thick and thin

So if you need to talk... here's my phone number
If you need a ride... here's my car keys
If you need a house... my house is your home
You can come and go as you please

I finally found what I've been searching for
(I've been searching, yeah)
Everything that I've been praying for
(I've been praying for it)
And I will do all that a man should do
(I'll do what a man should do)
Because I thank God for blessing me with you
('Cause I thank God for you)
I finally found you, and I won't let go (I'll keep holding on to)
I finally found you, and girl, you should know
(I wanna prove this to you)
I'll give you my heart (I'll give you my heart)
I'll lay down my life (I'll lay down my life)
I want you to be my wife (be my wife)

Huh... when a man finds a wife, it makes his heart sing
And my heart is singing a song
About the love we share, and the joy our love can bring
You're beautiful to me, you make me wanna be a better man
In my mind, in my heart, in my spirit, in my soul
I wanna do for you everything that I can
Because you've been a friend (you've been a friend)
A friend to the end (been my friend to the end)
When no one believed, you were always there for me
And I wanna thank you, if I can

So if you need to talk... here's my work
And my home, and my cell phone number
If you need a ride... ooh, take my car keys
If you need a house... my house is your home
You can come and go as you please

I finally found what I've been searching for (I found it)
Everything that I've been praying for
(Don't you know that I found it)
And I will do all that a man should do
(I'll do all that a man should do)
Because I thank God for blessing me with you (ooh, oh yeah)
I finally found you, and I won't let go (said I won't let her go)
I finally found you, and girl, you should know
(Girl, you should know)
I'll give you my heart (I'll give you my heart)
I'll lay down my life (I'll lay down my life)
I want you to be my wife (be my wife)

The Bible says it's not good for a man to be alone
(I finally found you, yeah)
Now I know, 'cause I've found
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone
(I finally found you, yeah)
So if you want me, I say yes (yeah...)
And if you will marry me, say... yeah...

I found you, I found you (ooh, yeah)
Sho-be-do-bop, sho-do-bop
I wanna love you, I finally found you
(I wanna do these things...)
I found you (so if there's anybody out there
Who knows what I'm talking about) I found you
(Let me see you wave your hands, dance, sing it)
Sho-be-do-bop, sho-do-bop
I wanna love you, I finally found you (finally found it)
I found you (yeah, yeah, yeah), I found you...
