Soulmate

All night long on my bed I looked for the one my heart loves I looked for her but did not find her My soulmate I looked high and I looked low but I could not find her My soulmate So I began to ask around Have you seen her The one my heart loves The one I looked for But couldn't find No said the man But who is this person That you looked for But could not find She is my soulmate I said The one who has my heart The one I looked for but Could not find So I continued to look for her My soulmate I looked to my right and I looked to my left but Still could not find her My soulmate So I began to ask around Yet again Have you seen her The one my heart loves The one I looked for but Could not find No said the lady But who is this person That has your heart She is my soulmate I said So I continued to look for her But could not find her I looked high I looked low I looked to my right and I looked to my left But could not find her Then I began to pray to the Lord: O' Lord help me Have mercy on me Please lead me to my soulmate The one who has my heart The one I looked for but Could not find Then the lord said: I have heard your prayers And found you righteousness And virtuous In my eyes and will Lead you to your soulmate Stand and turn around My child And when I did she Was right there Looking more beautiful Than anyone that I had Seen in my life Then the Lord said: You have looked high You have looked low You have looked to your right and You have looked to your left but Could not find her I said yes My Lord I Could not find her Then the Lord said: You have looked all of the places But never straight ahead She was in front of you the whole time And I said thank you my Lord Then the Lord said: I have found Your soulmate now go in peace my child I could not believe it after all of My searching I finally found her My soulmate Now I'm going to kiss her and never let her go Now I can rejoice because I finally found My soulmate
