About the song
“I’ll Never Find Another You” is a classic song by The Seekers, released as a single in 1964. It quickly captured the hearts of listeners and climbed to No. 1 on the UK charts in February 1965. This marked the band’s first single release in the UK, and it became one of the top-selling songs of 1965, earning the position of the second-best-selling single of that year in the UK.
The song also enjoyed significant success in the United States, where it reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 pop charts and No. 2 on the easy listening charts. This broad appeal helped cement its place in musical history. The track was crafted by Tom Springfield, who not only wrote and produced this song but also was behind many of The Seekers’ subsequent hits.
In 1967, the song saw a revival in the United States when it was covered by Sonny James and became a No. 1 hit in the country music charts. This demonstrated the song’s lasting appeal across different music genres and generations.
Decades later, in July 2018, “I’ll Never Find Another You” was featured in a TV advertisement for Westpac bank in Australia, with a new rendition by Julia Jacklin. The song’s enduring charm and significance were further recognized when it was added to the National Film and Sound Archive of Australia’s Sounds of Australia registry in 2011. This honor reflects the song’s lasting impact and beloved status in Australian music history.

Lyrics
There’s a new world somewhere
They call the promised land
And I’ll be there someday
If you could 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
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
