Michael Robert McGuire - To Be Loved lyrics
rate meMichael Robert McGuire - To Be Loved
Nothing ever works out in your life
You’ve never been a bridesmaid, much less taken for a wife
You got your small apartment, in your small hometown
A dead-end job, and no sign of Prince Charming comin’ round
You’ve always kept your heart locked up and bound
And there’s no map to find it, and no key to be found
But I know it’s still beating hard for someone
But that someone can hardly hear a sound
You can’t be an open book if no one gets to take a look
Someday someone could really make you smile
And make all of your waiting worth the while
Is it so wrong to discover someone cares for you
To be strong, yet weak enough to need
In the arms of a man who really wants you
A hurtin' heart can heal, given time enough
If you don’t make yourself so hard to be loved
Weekends are the same most every week
You hang out with your girlfriends at my bar just down the street
You see the men walk in, then watch 'em go
They're all the same old strangers that you don’t wanna know
No one gets to see inside, when all you show them is your pride
Girl, what's it gonna take to let it go
And until you do you’re never gonna know
Is it so wrong to discover someone cares for you
To be strong, yet weak enough to need
In the arms of a man who really wants you
A hurtin' heart can heal, given time enough
If you don’t make yourself so hard to be loved
Is it so wrong to let someone take good care of you
To belong with the man you really need
Spend your life with the one who really loves you
Your hurtin' soul can heal and still be tough
So don’t make yourself so hard to be loved
