Love To Be Loved — текст песни (Peter Gabriel)

[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
