Lyrics
All my life I've been searching to find.
Someone to love and do me right
Someone that will take the time to stay
To hold my hand and laugh and play
do all the things a woman wants and needs
for me just me
Hook
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
Loved, ooh love
My heart keeps on choosing the wrong kind
Always afraid to give his heart and time
with that I'm not gonna stay the night tonight
It started out fun but now it don't feel right
what I need is love that loves just me
and will treat me like a queen
Hook
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
Loved, ooh love
Bridge
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
repeat
Hook
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
I wanna be loved
Loved, ooh love
