LYRICS
Waking up alone
In a room that stills reminds me
The heart has got to learn to forget
Starting on my own
With every breath I'm getting stronger
This is not the time for regret
And I don't need to hang on to heartache
When there is so much of life left to live
Love is on the way
On wings of angels.
I know it’s true,
I'll get over you
Love is on the way
Time, is turning the pages.
I don't know when, but love will find me again.
I am not afraid
Of the mystery of tomorrow
I have found the faith deep within
There's a promise I have made
there's a dream I'm gonna follow
There's another chance to begin.
And its coming as sure as the heavens, Oh baby
I can feel right here, in my heart...In my heart

It's 12/12/2023, I'm having dinner & my kid is watching 'First wives club', I'm not paying much attention to it. Then I hear a voice and "Love is on the way". I'm like who has that voice! I searched for it and here I am. Can't believe it came out in 1996 and I never heard it! I'm completely pissed that I've lost 27yrs of not hearing this amazing song. Only knew of Billy 2 months ago.

SAME! My daughter is watching First Wives Club and the song begins. I am up on my feet and running wondering what is happening. My heart is happy. When I learned this song is part of that movie I wondered why I didn't notice it years ago. My Goodness! I didn't know this man could sing like this. Why isn't this song bigger and part of the global consciousness? What a gem. I will be playing it until I run my kids out of the house.

I first heard this song when I went to see "First Wives Club." I couldn't believe the sound of that voice. I had to find out who the artist was, so I went and bought the soundtrack from the movie. After that, I went on SiriusXM and found all his music. Of course, I played "Love Will Find A Way" over and over. He is my favorite playlist. He voice is pure that it gives you chills.

I remember where I was when I first heard this song. I was in the movie theater waiting for the "First Wives Club" to start. It came on over the sound system as they played the soundtrack to the movie. I was MESMERIZED! Just as I am every time I hear it since. I had heard "Show Me" as well as the name Billy Porter, but this was a sweet experience I needed in my life. I went to buy the CD the next day. Then I had the pleasure of going to his one man show at The Public Theater in NYC. He did it live...WERK Billy WERK! Over the years this has been a staple on my inspirational and "need a good cry" playlists. It's July 2023 and I'm listening to his book "Unprotected." I just finished the chapter where he goes in about this song. Had to come and listen to a live take. Mr. Porter, I have had the blessing to meet and witness your gift in person. Thank you for CHOOSING to stand in your worth and shine brighter because you're brave enough to also be TRUE to all that is you. You have been and will always be a light for me!!!

I have always loved the soundtrack and movie, The First Wives Club growing up as a teenager. And every time that scene comes up where the best friends get in to a fight, this song comes on and it really puts me in my feelings. Now in my late 30s and having been a fan of Pose since it first premiered, I didn’t know that this was THE Billy Porter. I’m now realizing, I have loved this artist, his personality, n talent since the 90s.

When you’re world seems lonely hang in there. When you think you’re not worthy of love, dismiss that thought it doesn’t serve you. When you say no one will love you like you would love them, slap yourself and wake up. Your world is a reflection of yourself. Have courage to find companionship, be brave in your worthiness, say you’ll find Love over flowing. Invite it. Call it. Everything you want is seeking you when you get out of your head and show the world you are ready! Head up, move forward and never look back.

NEVER heard of Billy Porter until TODAY, APRIL, 2023!!!!! I've watched the "First Wives Club" numerous times and would always wonder who was singing this beautiful song, but as soon as the movie was over, I'd forget about it. What brought me here today was the comment section of the video of him singing a gospel version of Kelly Clarkson's song, "Stronger". OMG!! Billy sang the hell outta that song! So, when I came here to see what the comment was referring to, lo and behold here's the song I had forgotten about!!!!!! I am in SHOCK!! GIFTED AND TRULY BLESSED man!! Thank you for sharing your God-given talent with the masses!🥰🥰

Oooo, how I love Billy Porter. Like others, I really knew nothing about him until he burst out in such a glorious manner as Pray Tell on Pose. Now I'm listening to his book on Audible, Unprotected, and it is a REVELATION. For any trauma survivors (and who isn't?) or anyone wondering about the nature of Spirit Unleashed, I highly recommend it. What a gift of truth and recognition this human being is.
