[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
