We Were Born to Be Loved

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 meaning changes when the screaming hits your ears

Do you really, do you really want to 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



As big heart, lonely eyes, a child plays with toys soon to realize

To stop playin', to bottle up inside, 'cause all he wanted was love

He remembers how well nobody cared,

He was alone with everybody there

He took a chance and got outta there but all he wanted was love



The mouth of the fool, 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



Take it a break, y'all
