I wanna be loved with inspiration
I wanna be loved certain tonight
Instead of merely holding conversation
Hold me tight
I wanna be loved, I crave affection
Those kisses of yours I'd gladly share
I want your eyes to shine in my direction
Make me care
I want the kind of romance that should be strong
And equally as tender
I only ask for the chance to know the meaning of
The word surrender
I wanna be thrilled by only you dear
I wanna be thrilled by your caress
I wanna find each dream of mine come true, dear
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
