The Crazy World of Arthur Brown - Want to Love lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

Your uncle was a damaged man

Who felt no guilt when molesting a child

He used and abused you

Hurt and confused you and left you feeling defiled

Now 15 years later

After a child had confused, despaired

You don't know how to own your passion

You never learned how to share

But you are a warrior fighting to regain your life

Facing the beast of your anger

To cut out its heart with your knife

(Chorus)

I think I'm a lot like you

We want to love, we want to be loved

I think you're a lot like me

We want to love, we want to be loved

(Verse 2)

When you told me your story

It reawakened the pain that lay down deep in my borrows

I never gave it a name

The truth was revealed to me

In fascist former forgotten past

Just when one moment of betrayal

And a lifetime to be an outcast

(Chorus)

I think I'm a lot like you

We want to love, we want to be loved

I think you're a lot like me

We want to love, we want to be loved

(Bridge)

Hey, lil momma, when you open your mind

Tell em to watch my fight(?)

(Verse 3)

I admire your courage, the face and the things you do

You and I, we're both alike, that's how I know you get through

Day by day we will take it, we'll take it hand in hand

Right now you have my promise, you can't lose cuz love understands

(Chorus)

I think I'm a lot like you

We want to love, we want to be loved

I think you're a lot like me

We want to love, we want to be loved
