Lyrics...

So, you know how people are
when it's all gone much too far
the way their minds are made

Still, there's something you should know
that I could not let show
the fear of letting go

And in this moment
I need to be needed
with this darkness all around me
I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear
I want to be wanted
'cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
Yes, I love to be loved

I cry, the way that babies cry
the way they can't deny
the way they feel

Words, they climb all over you
'til they uncover you
from where you hide

And in this moment
I need to be needed
when my self-esteem is sinking
I like to be liked

In this emptiness and fear
I want to be wanted
'cause I love to be loved
yes, I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved

This old familiar craving
been here before
this way of behaving
don't know who the hell I'm saving anymore

Let it pass let it go let it leave
from the deepest place I grieve
this time I believe

And I let go
and I let go
I let go
I let go

You know that I mean it
you know that I mean it
I recognize how much I've lost
and I cannot face this cost
'cause I love to be loved
'cause I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
I love to be loved
