Lyrics

I just keep walkin, girl I'm looking for you.
I just keep walkin, trying to find the one that's so true.

I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.
I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.

Chorus-I could walk for a thousand years.
I could sail every sea, for me.
I could climb the highest mountain.
Nothin does what you do to me. You do to me yeah.

Ba da da da da da da. Ba da da da da da da.

I just keep walkin, girl I'm looking for you.
I just keep walkin, trying to find the one that's so true.

I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.
I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.

Bridge - I burn for you. Girl, you know I'd move the earth and moon and stars for you. Ba da da da Ba da da da Ba da. Ba da da Ba da da da aaahh.

I just keep walkin, girl I'm looking for you.
I just keep walkin, trying to find the one that's so true.

I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.
I've got a hole in my heart, a pain in my brain, a hole in my heart that keeps driving me.

Chorus-I could walk with a thousand girls. Love and leave, set them free from me.
I could love just for love sakes.
No love does, what yours does to me, yours does to me.

Ba da da da da da da. Ba da da da da da da.
Just keep just keep walkin'
Bo da da dat, Ba da da do dat da dat
Just Keep Walkin
Bo da da dat, Ba da da do dat da dat
Just keep walkin'
