I wanna be loved with inspiration
|
I wanna be loved starting tonight
|
Instead of merely holding conversation
|
Hold me tight
|
|
I wanna be kissed until I tingle
|
I wanna be kissed starting tonight
|
Embrace until our heartbeats intermingle
|
Wrong or right
|
|
I feel like acting my age
|
I'm past the stage of merely turtledoving
|
(be careful, be careful what you do)
|
I'm in no mood to resist
|
And I insist the world owes me a loving
|
|
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
|
I wanna be thrilled starting tonight
|
(love me, love me, love me)
|
With every kind of wonderful sensation
|
I wanna be loved
|
|
I feel like acting my age
|
I'm past the stage of merely turtledoving
|
I'm in no mood to resist
|
And I insist the world owes me a loving
|
|
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
|
I wanna be thrilled starting tonight
|
With every kind of wonderful sensation
|
I wanna be loved
|
|
