Gladys Knight - I Wanna Be Loved lyrics

Why do I feel like my heart gets broken Whenever I surrender my emotions I thought that I could tell you how I feel Whether good or bad, when I'm happy or sad Why do I have to be the silent one Whenever there is something on my mind I thought that we were partners in this game of love Why can't I laugh or cry and shed my feelings deep inside I wanna be loved by somebody Who's strong enough for me I want to be free with my feelings That's the way it's supposed to be I'm willing to share my emotions And give you what you need Just don't turn away If I say that I just want to be me, yeah Why am I questioning where you are It's just because I've made a few demands Remember all the times we cried and I dried your tears And how I held your hand if you do, please understand I wanna be loved by somebody Who's strong enough for me I want to be free with my feelings That's the way it's supposed to be I'm willing to share my emotions And give you what you need Just don't turn away If I say that I just want to be me I want to cry tears of joy and not of pain I want to share things that words can not explain I don't want to go, I just need for you to know That my love is sweet, but strong, so keep on holding on 'Cause I wanna be loved by somebody Who's strong enough for me I want to be free with my feelings That's the way it's supposed to be I'm willing to share my emotions And give you what you need Just don't turn away If I say that I just want to be me Just don't turn away If I say that I just want to be me Just don't turn away If I say that I just want to be me
