[Verse 1]
I'm a fool running through your door
With my head and my heart at war
Heaven knows what I'm looking for
In spite of everything
We only spark when we start to end
A penny for every night I spent
Baptized by your mess again
But I only want one thing

[Chorus]
I wanna be loved by you
I just wanna be loved by you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Why do you do all of the things you do?
When I just wanna be loved by you?

[Post-Chorus]
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)

[Verse 2]
We're getting off right before we crash
And threw the truth that we're holding back
If one mistake could make us last
In spite of everything
It's not a fight 'til the final blow
Can't lose it all 'til it's yours to hold
And what's a high without the low?
When I only want one thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
I wanna be loved by you
I just wanna be loved by you, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Why do you do all of the things you do?
When I just wanna be loved by you?

[Post-Chorus]
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)
I said I (I)
I just wanna be, wanna be, just wanna be loved by you (yeah, yeah, you)

[Outro]
Why do you do all of those things you do?
When I just wanna be loved by you?
