Song Lyrics

Play it so sweetly
Calm and so unsuspectingly
The image of you passes me by
And I see a life of loved and passion
Like you can imagine
If only you knew the things you do to me
Each and every night while I sleep
Oh but why must it be just when I'm dreaming
Silently I'm screaming

I want to be loved
I want to be loved by you
I want to make a dream come true
If I could just see in the room
There's nothing that I rather do
I want to be loved
I want to be loved by you
Baby make you want me too (make you want me)
I want to be loved by you
There's nothing that I rather do
Some say that it's not lady like um no
To tell a man the way that you feel
But I can't conceal this any longer
Desire's getting stronger
So let's put the formalities aside (tonight)
I can't let it slip thru my hands
This is my chance for not to take it (for not to take it)
So I'm just gonna say it

I want to be loved
I want to be loved by you (oh baby)
I want to make a dream come true (I want to make it come true)
If I could just see in the room
There's nothing that I rather do (I wanna be loved)
I want to be loved by you
Baby make you want me too (gonna make you want me)
I want to be loved by you
There's nothing that I rather do (tell you what I'm gonna do)
I'm gonna bare my thoughts and unload all my feelings
'Cause nobody knows (no one but me)
I'm gonna let you in on fantasies
I've held within for such a long time
I'm gonna tell you what's on my mind

Play so sweetly
I want to be loved by you
I want to be loved by you
I want to make a dream come true
If I could just see in the room
There's nothing that I rather do
I want to be loved
I want to be loved by you (I wanna be loved)
Baby make you want me too (right next to you boy)
I want to be loved by you
There's nothing that I rather do
Only you, only you can do it to me yea hey hey
Woo hoo
Wanna be I wanna be I want to be loved by you baby
Wanna be I wanna be I want to be loved yea
