I Want To Be Wanted

(album: Danny Boy And Other Songs I Love To Sing - 1962)

Alone, so alone that I could cry
I want to be wanted
Alone, watching lovers passing by
I want to be wanted

When I am kissed
I want her lips to really kiss me
When we're apart
I want her heart to really miss me
I want to know
She loves me so
Her eyes are misting
That's the way
I want to be loved

Alone, just my lonely heart knows how
I want to be wanted
Right now
Not tomorrow, but right now
I want to be wanted

I want someone to share my love to
And my dreams with
Someone I know I'd love to spend
A million years with
Where is this someone somewhere
Meant for me?

Alone, so alone that I could cry
I want to be wanted
