Love To Be Loved Lyrics by Peter Gabriel

Love To Be Loved Lyrics

    [aaaaahi, byeeee]

    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
    That 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 [x2]
    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
    I love to be loved [x2]
    Oh i love to be loved

    This old familiar craving
    I've 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 [x2]
    I can let go of it
    Though it takes all the strength in me
    And all the world can see
    I'm losing such a central part of me
    I can let go of it
    You know i mean it
    You know that i mean it
    I recognize how much i've lost
    But i cannot face the cost
    'cause i love to be loved

    Yes i love to be loved
    I love to be loved
    [x3]

    I love to be loved
    I love to be loved
    Yes i love to be loved
