There's a girl in my office She keeps on stopping Right in front of my eyes Though I try and try I can't hide anymore Letting my feelings speak for me But when I try to speak My tongue gets weak I stay the lonely man I am Why should it be That my heart's under lock And I can't find the key? Tell me, why should it seem That I'm diving inside Without making a try? (Why oh) But I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) But I only want to be wanted (Why oh) There's a girl in my dreams Working nights on my scenes Till she has me in little bits There's a time and a place But it moves at a pace And I can't seem to keep in time There's a word for the way But no words could I say So lonely a man I stay Why should it be? I confess that it's hard Turning hopes into dreams but Why did I see? You cocoon yourself nights Finding soup in your flies I only want to be wanted I only want to be wanted I only want to be wanted I only want to be wanted Why should it be That my heart's under lock And I can't find the key? Tell me, why should it seem That I'm diving inside Without making a try? (Why oh) I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) But I only want to be wanted (Why oh) (Why oh) I only want to be wanted (Why oh)
