Wanna Be Loved
[Verse 1]
I think it's true that we all live and die
Through everyone else's eyes
That's why we need to belong
That's why my heart beats when the telephone rings
And why I try to say funny things
It's why I'm singin' this song

[Chorus 1]
'Cause we just wanna be loved
We just wanna be loved
And when it's said and done
There's no one above a little love

[Verse 2]
It's why it hurts so when your girl broke your heart
It's why we want a big house and nice cars
There's nothing stronger inside
And we're no different, woman or man
We're broken, beautiful, and we only love to get by

[Chorus 1]
Yeah, we just wanna be loved
We just wanna be loved
And when it's said and done
There's no one above a little love
[Bridge]
We just want love, it's nothing above it
It's what we need, it's what we seek
And every move leads right back to
Our need for acceptance, our fear of rejection
Oh, a little love
Yeah, that's what we want
Yeah, that's what I want

[Chorus 2]
Yeah, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved
And when it's said and done
I've never been above a little love
Oh, no, a little love (ooh)
