Love To Be Loved - Lyrics by One Voice


Lyrics
(
Aaaaahi, byeeee)


So, you know how people are

When it's all gone much too far

The way their minds are made

Still, there's something you should know

That I could not let show

That fear of letting go


And in this moment, I need to be needed

With this darkness all around me, I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear, I want to be wanted
'
Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]

Yes, I love to be loved

I cry the way that babies cry

The way they can't deny

The way they feel

Words, they climb all over you
'
Til they uncover you

From where you hide


And in this moment, I need to be needed

When my self-esteem is sinking, I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear,
I want to be wanted
'
Cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved [x2]

Oh I love to be loved


This old familiar craving
I've been here before, this way of behaving

Don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore

Let it pass let it go let it leave

From the deepest place I grieve

This time I believe


And I let go [x2]
I can let go of it

Though it takes all the strength in me

And all the world can see
I'm losing such a central part of me
I can let go of it

You know I mean it

You know that I mean it
I recognize how much I've lost

But I cannot face the cost
'
Cause I love to be loved


Yes I love to be loved
I love to be loved

[x3]

I love to be loved
I love to be loved

Yes I love to be loved
