To Be Loved

Waking up

Thinking of what it is to be loved

(To be loved, to be loved)

Should I know

On my own on a road

What it is to be loved

(To be loved, to be loved)

You touched my skin so warm, but

Time is cold, and trust me, I would know

In my heart, I'm the half of a whole

And it's making me feel so alone

Waking up

Thinking of what it is to be loved

(To be loved, to be loved)

I tell myself I have to build defenses

'Cause once you are in love, you are defenseless

Everything was easy when it meant less

But once you are in love, you are defenseless

Nobody knows me, nobody knows me

I'm never lonely

Until someone holds me

And it's all just to show me

How it's like to be loved

How it's like to be loved

How it's like to be loved

I take flight when you hold me

Is that how you show me

How it's like to be loved?

How it's like to be loved

Love, love, love

Love, love, love

Love, love, love

Love, love, love

'Cause nobody shows me

Nobody shows me

How it's like to be loved

How it's like to be loved

I take flight when you hold me

Is that how you show me

How it's like to be loved?

How it's like to be loved

I tell myself I have to build defenses

'Cause once I am in love I'll be

Once I am in love, I'll be defenseless

Defenseless

Once I am in love, I'll be defenseless
