I wanna be loved with inspiration
i wanna be loved starting tonight
instead of merely holding conversation
hold me tight
I wanna be kissed until i tingle
i wanna be kissed starting tonight
embrace until our heartbeats intermingle
wrong or right

i wanna be kissed starting tonight
embrace until our heartbeats intermingle
wrong or right
I feel like acting my age
i'm past the stage of merely turtledoving
(be careful, be careful what you do)
i'm in no mood to resist
and i insist the world owes me a loving
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
i wanna be thrilled starting tonight
(love me, love me, love me)
with every kind of wonderful sensation
i wanna be loved
I feel like acting my age
i'm past the stage of merely turtledoving
i'm in no mood to resist
and i insist the world owes me a loving
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
i wanna be thrilled starting tonight
with every kind of wonderful sensation
i wanna be loved
