I could shout from a rooftop how I really feel Do you really want to know, do you really care I could silently scream so you never hear Somebody said you must rise above it all We were born to be loved How the screaming changes when the meaning hits your ears Do you really, do you really wanna know Can you count the reasons why we have so many fears Somebody said you must rise above it all We were born to be loved Somebody said read the writing on the wall We were born to be loved A big heart, lonely eyes A child plays with toys to soon to realize To stop playin take it all inside All he wanted was love He remembers how that nobody cared He was alone with everybody there Took a chance and got outta there All he wanted was love The mouth of the fool was a whip on his back He's got the scars to prove it A broken heart, a matter of fact But he knows how to use it Happy endings are not just for tv Broken hearts Don't lose one piece of the puzzle And the beatles said all you need is love I could point the finger but there's too much inside here Somebody said you must rise above it all We were born to be loved Somebody said read the writing on the wall We were born to be loved
