Love (Validation)

(álbum: To Anyone Like Me - 2020)

Not looking for much
Just a little validation
I'm having trouble finding ways to trust
Never built the foundation
That I need to have all of that
That sweet love
No, it's all too much
But it's not enough
All I ever get from your touch
Is a little validation

And it's never enough, never enough, never enough, ooh
Doesn't fill me up, fill me up, fill me up, ooh, like

Love
What do I gotta do to get some love?
Why does it gotta hurt to feel so much?
Like a tidal wave that I can't escape
Try to run away to anyone like me
Anyone who needs
Love, love, love
What do I gotta do to get some love?

Not doing enough
To be taking care of myself
Tried to put it on somebody else
And, yeah, I put him through hell
Knowing that I needed more of
That self-love
But I'll learn to trust
That I'm enough
So I don't need to lean on your touch
For a little validation

'Cause it's never enough, never enough, never enough, ooh
Doesn't fill me up, fill me up, fill me up, ooh, like

Love
What do I gotta do to get some love?
Why does it gotta hurt to feel so much?
Like a tidal wave that I can't escape
Try to run away to anyone like me
Anyone who needs
Love, love, love
What do I gotta do to get some love?

'Cause it's never enough, never enough, never enough, ooh
Doesn't fill me up, fill me up, fill me up, ooh, like

Love
What do I gotta do to get some love? (What do I gotta do?)
Why does it gotta hurt to feel so much?
Like a tidal wave that I can't escape
Try to run away to anyone like me
Anyone who needs
Love
What do I gotta do to get some love?
Why does it gotta hurt to feel so much?
Like a tidal wave that I can't escape
Try to run away to anyone like me
Anyone who needs
Love, love, love
What do I gotta do to get some love?

Mmm
(Love)
What do I gotta do?
