Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
Take a piece of dignity and use it in your life
Love was never special, we were never down
Oh, I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
I just wanna be loved, oh, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna fight you, baby
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
Fortunately I got wise this time, fortunately I got me on my mind
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
I will find another love, someone new to drag me down
I just wanna be loved, don't wanna beg you, baby
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
You will always have someone to bring you on the ground
Even though you hurt me, I still want you to survive
But I'm much too proud to say it loud
How you tried to level me but you never stood your ground
But I'm much too proud to shout it loud
