I have climbed the highest mountain
|
I have sailed across the sea
|
I have wrestled with my demons
|
And woke up with only me
|
I have been around the block
|
Three times maybe four
|
And I think I deserve just a little more
|
|
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
|
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
|
Oh I want to be in love
|
You're standing on the doorstep in the rain
|
Cause you couldn't wait to see me once again
|
Oh I want to be in love
|
|
I have made some big mistakes
|
And I've paid a heavy price
|
I found a little peace between will and sacrifice
|
I have watched as all my dreams
|
Went walking out the door
|
And I think I deserve just a little more
|
|
I'm looking for a heart of gold
|
I'm looking for a hand to hold
|
A happy end
|
Strong and kind
|
Somewhere to rest my troubled mind
|
|
In front of total strangers won't you kiss me
|
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
|
Oh I want to be in love
|
On Tuesday light the candles bring me wine
|
Wednesday morning I won't get to work on time
|
Oh I want to be in love
|
Surprise me as I'm stepping off the plane
|
Take my hand as they play our song again
|
Oh I want to be in love
|
|

I Want To Be In Love
