There’s So Many People That Want To Be Loved

There's so many people that want to be loved

But you won't lay your finger on another one

There's a conversation that I'd like to discuss

But you don't wanna open your goddamn mouth

I've been workin' things out, I've been slavin' away

I've been sayin' things like, "I kept my temper at bay"

And savin' up for

Someone that really wants to be loved

But you're the only pair of hands that I'm thinkin' of

There's so many people that want to be loved

See them walkin' 'round in odd socks

Lookin' 'bout as lonely as astronauts

I see them in the graveyards walkin' their dogs

See them in the nightclubs barkin' up the walls

Head in their hands in the bathroom stalls

Standin' like lampposts waitin' for their train

To see them even when I think I'll never see them again

There's so many people and it drives me insane

There's so many people that just want to be loved

There's so many people that just want to be loved

There's so many people that just want to be loved

I've been workin' things out, I've been takin' my time

I've been sayin' things like, "Yeah, I know you're not mine"

There's so many people that just want to be loved

But you're the only pair of hands I can think of (that I'm thinkin' of)

There's so many people that want to be loved

See them walkin' 'round in odd socks

Lookin' 'bout as lonely as astronauts

I see them in the graveyards walkin' their dogs

I see them in the nightclubs barkin' up the walls

Head in their hands in the bathroom stalls

Standin' like lampposts waitin' for their train

To see them even when I think I'll never see them again

There's so many people and it drives me insane

There's so many people that just want to be loved

There's so many people that just want to be loved

There's so many people that just want to be
