Tones And I - To Be Loved Lyrics

I'm sorry to my sister, think about you every day
Do you ever cry when you see the new family that I've made?
Had to go, oh, you know I had to go, I had to leave and get away
Oh, and I'm sorry to my brother, tried to help you on your way
But I could've been there more for you, I was broken and afraid
And oh, you know I had to go, I had to leave and get away
And to the guy that hit me, I'm so sorry that I stayed
But I wanted to be loved, but to me that love was pain
I let you break me down, so I could build me up again
And again, and again, and again
I'm so sorry to myself, I could have loved you more and more
I just wanted to be loved, but I could only see my flaws
But I am grateful, oh, I am grateful for how we handled it all
Oh, the choices that I made, I had to make them, they weren't mine
I was so young I never thought about me leavin' you behind
How that would've made you feel? Do you think about me still? I hope you will
All my old friends all probably hate me while their mothers praise me online
Does it make you sad we haven't been in touch for all this time?
The little moments that we had, all the dreams you left behind while I got mine
I think about it all the time

I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved

And what's the point of all of this if I go and lose my inner child?
I just wanna make her proud and just wanna make her smile
But I've been fightin' all the days and I've been losin' all the nights, but I will survive
I will not sit around just feeling sorry for myself
'Cause I got so much more to give than just a vinyl on a shelf
And if I was going to end it all, I would've done it by now, I would've done it by now
Oh, and go and say it all because the damage has been done
You better say it from your chest because my best is yet to come
And I will fight for every moment till I say I'm done
I just wanna be loved

I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Ooh)
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Wanna be loved)
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be loved)
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (Oh)
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be)
I just wanna be loved, I just wanna be loved (I just wanna be)

And honestly I've been scared to do this on my own
And now I'm lost than I was before
So I'm waiting for anyone who cares, does anybody care anymore, anymore? Mm, ooh (Does anybody care? Does anybody care? Does anybody care? Does anybody care? Does anybody care?)
Now I'm lost, I'm lost, I am
