Recorded in 1964 by The Seekers (probably best known in the United States for their 1966 hit, Georgy Girl), I'll Never Find Another You was written and produced by Tom Springfield, brother of pop icon Dusty Springfield. With this folk-pop song, The Seekers became the first Australian band to sell over one million copies of a single, and the first to have a Top 5 hit in Australia, the UK and the United States. In 1965, The Seekers outsold The Beatles! My cover of I'll Never Find Another You — sung in my best "folk- pop" style — is a birthday gift for my wife, Mary, who grew up in Australia and loves all of the Seekers' songs. I've re-worked The Seekers' vigorous, five-part harmony into a sweet, intimate, two-part harmony (in the style of the Everly Brothers or Simon & Garfunkel).


LYRICS

There's a new world somewhere
They call the promised land
And I'll be there someday
If you will hold my hand
I still need you there beside me
No matter what I do
For I know I'll never find
Another you

There is always someone
For each of us, they say
And you'll be my someone
Forever and a day
I could search the whole world over
Until my life is through
But I know I'll never find
Another you

It's a long, long journey
So stay by my side
When I walk through the storm
You'll be my guide,
Be my guide

If they gave me a fortune
My pleasure would be small
I could lose it all tomorrow
And never mind at all
But if I should lose your love, dear
I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find
Another you

[INSTRUMENTAL]

But if I should lose your love, dear
I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find
Another you
Another you
Another you
