lyrics

Everybody Wants To Be Loved
(Alice Olsen & Daryl Keith Norman)

Verse #1:
It only takes a little spark before the fire grows.
It only takes the rain to fall before the river flows.
It only takes a single touch before the feeling starts.
You've got to love somebody first before they take your heart.

Chorus:
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LOVED,
Everybody needs a hand to hold on to.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LOVED,
Someone to lean on - someone true.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LOVED,
So let the love shine in.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE LOVED,
Just let it begin.

Verse #2:
What you give is what you get. It's easy if you try.
Lift somebody off the ground - soon you'll learn to fly.
Love just can't be held inside or saved for a rainy day.
Take your chances as they come before they slip away.

Bridge:
Life's too short to take for granted,
No time for goodbyes,
So take my hand - let's see the world,
As seen through lover's eyes.
