If you need my hands to pull you up above the earth Well I will lift you up to show you just how much you're worth 'Cause we need to be loved Said we need to be loved If I had you here I wear your heart just like a crown And if it beats for me then I would never put it down 'Cause we need to be loved Said we need to be loved By someone else By someone else And why isn't the love that we have for ourselves, enough? And why is it that we need to be held when our lives, get rough? That people always tell you its easy just stand alone? But I can barely manage to smile when you're not home We need to be loved We need to be loved Said we need to be loved Said we need to be loved And isnt the love that we have for ourselves, enough? And why is it we need to be held when our lives, get rough? And people always tell you its easy just stand alone? But I barely manage to smile when you're not home Said we need to be loved Said we need to be loved Said we need to be loved Said we need to be loved By someone else By someone else
