I Want To Be Loved

[Verse 1]

I had a roof overhead

Had shoes on my feet

Yeah, sure, I was fed

But no-one was there when I was in need

Yeah

[Verse 2]

So who am I now?

Who do you want me to be?

I can forgive you, but I won't relive you

I ain't the same scared kid I used to be

[Chorus]

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna survive

Don't want the world to pass me by

I'm gonna dream, I ain't gonna die

Thinkin' my life was just a lie

I wanna be loved

I wanna be loved

[Verse 3]

I found a picture

Our so-called family tree, yeah

I broke all the branches, lookin' for answers

Don't you know that ain't how it's supposed to be?

[Chorus]

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna survive

Don't want the world to pass me by

I'm gonna dream, I ain't gonna die

Thinkin' my life was just a lie

I wanna give, I'm ready to try

Willin' to lay it on the line

I wanna be loved

I wanna be

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

I ain't gonna cry

I don't wanna scream

But I got so much left unsaid inside of me

[Chorus]

I'm gonna live, I'm gonna survive

Don't want the world to pass me by

I'm gonna dream, I ain't gonna die

Thinkin' my life was just a lie

I wanna give, I'm ready to try

Willin' to lay it on the line

I wanna be loved

Wanna be love

I just wanna be loved

I wanna be loved

[Outro]

I wanna be loved

I wanna be loved
