They say, "Love is the answer"
I say, "What is the question?"
They say, "What's gonna matter
When time grows you old?"
I say, "I never ask that question
But I think you oughta know"

I got friends I can count on
I got money in my pocket
There are promises I've broken
And promises I've kept
But I swear I never meant it
When I said I don't need nobody else
Oh no

I thought winning was the answer
Love was out of the question
My heart's the loser in the end
Now I know love is the answer
The question is when

When will somebody want me?
When will somebody need me?
When will I have the chance again?
'Cause I know love is the answer
The question is when
Yes, I know love is the answer
The question is when

When
