Well I have lived the high life   Out here on the town   In my favorite dress with my heart in my chest   You set them up and I will close the place down   And all the lights out in Brooklyn, baby   Well they used to spell out my name.    I could tear up the streets just by tapping my feet   Oh, and then I'd wake up   And do it again      But I've been a flame    In the fire   Swore I could set a blaze to everything I touched   I'd been down to the wire   And now I just want to be loved (2x)      Well it ain't easy, living day by day   So tell me why is a right thing    Always such a rough thing to do?   But you know what they say    Ain't no good running away   And there ain't no one gonna look out for you      And I was a flame in the fire   Though i swore I would never get enough   Been the lied to, and the liar   And now I just want to be loved (2x)      I've had a long day, and I am tired   And now I just want to be loved
