They are going to lock me up and you can't even be straight with me can you? Every morning, every single day I can feel it behind my eyes. I'm well aware you've counted me out. I'm down deep in the darkest of lows. It's often said but it rings so true. It's so hard, so hard, so hard to change.
Oh I need to love. To love and be loved.
Like it or not the heart will be filled. With love or hate, anything needed to survive. So I'll keep on singing. I'll find it somehow. Maybe a different face, maybe another name. But where will I go if it never comes and who will I tell my story too? I don't know maybe it's all just the same but I'll be here anyway with my words and my faith.
Oh I need to love. To love and be loved.
So if you let me go now I will believe, I will pray and I'll see you when the light hits my eyes. Rising up in the most desperate of times but I know I'll be saved if I watch for the signs. And where will I go if it never comes and who will I tell my story too? Walking down the hospital halls an empty bed where you used to be.
Oh I need to love. To love and be loved.
