She said, "Every time I close my eyes
I feel like I could disappear
(Disappear)
I could overflow an ocean
With the cavalcade of all my tears
(All my tears)
And I know I sound dramatic
But that's just how it feels" (It feels)
She said, "I'm holdin' to the notion
That I'll find something real"

Yeah, I just want to be wanted, oh
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed, oh
Like to know I'm crossin' someone's mind
I just wanna be someone that somebody needs
I just wanna be more than a drop in the sea
I just wanna be

She said, "I'm countin' up my karma
And I think it's time to cash it in (Cash it in)
So tired of livin' in a shadow of a mountain
Of what might've been (Might've been)
And I know I sound dramatic, but that's just how it feels
I've been looking for somebody to tell me that I'm real"

I just wanna to be wanted (Oh)
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed (Oh)
Like to know I'm crossin' someone's mind
I just wanna be someone that somebody needs
I just wanna be more than a drop in the sea

I just wanna to be wanted
Oh yeah
We just wanna be wanted
Ooh

I just wanna be wanted
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed
Like to know I'm crossin' someone's mind
