what a great song
Are you feeling down, and lonely
Feeling like you can't go on
Just remember love will find a way

Tell me are you going through changes
Time seems like it's passing by
Just believe that love will find a way

(bridge
I see the tears you cry
I see the pain that's in your eyes
So many times you were so lonely
And no one seemed to care
But if your hopes for your tomorrows
Are drowning in your sorrows
Know your heart will show you the way
Are you trying to find a beginning
Or something just to hold on to
Always know that love will find a way

Is it hard this life you're living
Does the world seem so unkind
Don't you worry love will find a way

Some say we've lost our way
Some say the world has gone astray
But if you know where you're going
There's nothing you can do
'Cause problems will come
And they will leave you
The world will try to deceive you
But the truth will always be in your soul

A great steppin' song!!!

I always thought this was his coolest "laid-back" groove type of song. Really understated and cool. Nice driving music.

Yes! My God, it really is his best post-Commodores track.

This was one of my favorite tracks by him before the shit hit the fan with Brenda .

This is one of Lionel Richie's greatest songs as a solo artist.Notably,it's the most soulful song on his 'Can't Slow Down' album.It became a Quiet Storm staple,and rightfully so.

This was the best post-Commodores song Lionel put out in the 80's. I'm pretty I sure I saw a video for it too. Lionel needs to stop bullshittin' and do the Commodores reunion tour already.

Hey, he probably just waiting for the right amount of cheddar and brotha will be all over it SPY Baby. Shit, he has to pay all that damn alimony.

LOL!!!!!... You are right on with that one, baby. Lionel needs to get his "funk pass" back, right? VH-1's "Bands Reunited" ALMOST had them, but he bailed out.

SPYZFAN1 said:

Brotha Lionel and Commodores need to step back up to the plate. Hell if Fleetwood Mac can it, anybody can do it.

I'd love to see a Commodores reunion.Lionel need to get back to the funk! These days,he's playing alot of schmaltzy Europop crap,which is just dreadful

DavidEye said:

I heard the mess and it sounds really shitty .

Just to beeee cloossse toooo yoouuuuu!!!! Gooorrrrllll!!!!

I actual prefer Love Will Conquer All, which is basically a rehash but the words kinda make my heart bleed.

Stymie said:

Good one also.....

Nah, Stuck on You is his best post-commodore's song. I swear Lionel's a country singer at heart not a funk man.

whodknee said:

That's a matter of opinion. Groove is in the heart and Funk is more than a feeling.

This song is da bomb. Maybe my fav Richie song.

I love the whole Can't Slow Down album because it made me get used to Lionel's solo career a little more. Don't get me wrong: I loved when he was with the Commodores, but by the time he released his debut, I was so disappointed. An album full of lighthearted adult contemporary ballads? Can't Slow Down was a completely different album--it was like his THRILLER and I loved it from beginning to end! And that song, Love Will Find A Way is probably one of his most underrated solo jams ever. I loved the jazzy instrumentation and the smooth vocals. One of my favorite LR cuts!

"Love Will Find A Way" is my favorite song by Lionel. It reminds me so much of Kenny Loggins' "Love Will Follow" which is a favorite of mine also. If I am not mistaken, both songs came out around the same time.

I always loved the song "Selah." I can remember listening to that song on the radio as a kid and thinking that its reggae beat made it sound so different than what was on the radio....then I think a lil while later, "Red Red Wine" started blowing up on radio

Hotlegs said:

You're right. It's just my opinion.

LoveAlive said:

Selah was the jam . Again, I have to say that Lionel wrote most of his best stuff before the shit hit the fan w/Brenda. After Brenda left, his music hasn't sounded right since.
