Lyrics
I WANT TO BE LOVED
©2003 Carey Moore/Nikki Dean
I want to be in a picture that sits on someone's desk.
I want to hear him smile and say I'm wearing his favorite dress.
Hear his voice on the phone, making sure I got home allright.
Then tell me soft and slow he can't wait until tonight.
CHORUS:
I WANT TO BE LOVED.
I want to be held, I want to be touched.
What I wouldn't do to hear "I love you."
I've lived this way long enough.
I WANT TO BE LOVED.
Home's so much warmer when someone waits for you.
Shopping's not a chore when you're cooking for two.
I see lovers holding hands and sometimes start to ache.
What a difference two strong arms around me would make.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
BRIDGE:
I used to get wound up at the thought of being tied down.
But the chains around my heart could be a lifeline now.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
