I Wanna Be Loved - Gladys Knight, Jamie Foxx

Why do I feel like my heart gets broken

Whenever I surrender my emotions

I thought that I could tell you how I feel

Whether good or bad, when I’m happy or sad

Why do I have to be the silent one

Whenever there is something on my mind

I thought that we were partners in this game of love

Why can’t I laugh or cry and shed my feelings deep inside

I wanna be loved by somebody

Who’s strong enough for me

I want to be free with my feelings

That’s the way it’s supposed to be

I’m willing to share my emotions

And give you what you need

Just don’t turn away

If I say that I just want to be me, yeah

Why am I questioning where you are

It’s just because I’ve made a few demands

Remember all the times we cried and I dried your tears

And how I held your hand if you do, please understand

I wanna be loved by somebody

Who’s strong enough for me

I want to be free with my feelings

That’s the way it’s supposed to be

I’m willing to share my emotions

And give you what you need

Just don’t turn away

If I say that I just want to be me

I want to cry tears of joy and not of pain

I want to share things that words can not explain

I don’t want to go, I just need for you to know

That my love is sweet, but strong, so keep on holding on

'Cause I wanna be loved by somebody

Who’s strong enough for me

I want to be free with my feelings

That’s the way it’s supposed to be

I’m willing to share my emotions

And give you what you need

Just don’t turn away

If I say that I just want to be me

Just don’t turn away

If I say that I just want to be me

Just don’t turn away

If I say that I just want to be me
