Ricky Nelson - I Wanna Be Loved (1959) lyrics

I wanna be loved with inspiration I wanna be loved starting tonight Instead of merely holding conversation Hold me tight I wanna be loved, I crave affection Those kisses of yours, I'd gladly share I want your eyes to shine in my direction Make me care I want the kind of romance that should be strong And equally as tender I only ask for the chance to know the meaning Of the word ?surrender? I wanna be thrilled by only you, dear I wanna be thrilled by your caress I wanna find each dream of mine come true Dear, I wanna be loved 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 me till our heartbeats intermingle Wrong or right I'm in the mood to adore I'm ready for that well known turtle doving 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
