Words/music by Bruce Edwin
I wanna belong - I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong.
Like a white knight, I wanna be strong.
I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong - I wanna belong.
I wanna belong - I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong.
Like dynamite, I wanna be strong.
I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong - I wanna belong.
I wanna belong - I wanna belong.
Would you accept me just the way I am?
Or, would you try to change me?
Would you think about being my friend?
Would it be wrong - for me to belong?
I wanna belong.
I, I wanna belong - I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong.
Like King Kong, I wanna be strong.
I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong - I wanna belong.
Would you accept me just the way I am?
Or, would you try to change me?
Would you think about being my friend?
Would it be wrong - for me to belong?
I wanna belong.
I, I wanna belong - I wanna be right - don't wanna be wrong.
Like a white knight, I wanna be strong.
I wanna be right - I don't wanna be wrong - I wanna belong.
I wanna belong - I wanna belong.
