My SEARCH List was accidentally deleted

I meant to hit the SEARCH List tab, but accidentally hit the red "X" on it instead of the word. I'm not sure how to put SEARCH back.
I tried just going into the SETTINGS, LIST area and creating one named SEARCH, but now it doesn't appear in the same order as it did before, and I thought it may have been a blue List tab, like the ALL TASKS List tab.

Like the ALL TASKS List tab, I think the SEARCH List tab was originally a "Smart List" before I accidentally destroyed it. I don't know how to restorer. Perhaps I wasn't clear berfore. Please advise.
The only list you can delete from the Tasks view is the last search you performed (saved as Search). If you are beyond Undo (which you probably are since it's been three days already), I think there's no way to get this search back.
A tip for the future is to save this Search as a smart list as soon as you're satisfied with the result. Afterwards you can edit it further still.

Problem solved this morning. Being a newbie to your program, I was simply misunderstanding what I was seeing on the TASK list tabs.
I apparently had initiated a search, and its results created a SEARCH tab on the TASKS list. At that time, I hadn't noticed that I didn't originally have a SEARCH tab and thought it had always been there (as a place to begin setting criteria for any new search). It had the red "X" that I mentioned before, to delete it, which I did by accident. At that point, I thought I'd lost some functionality of your program. I didn't realize the "X" was only to close the results of the search I had recently run.
