The Andrews Sisters feat. Gordon Jenkins Lyrics
"I Wanna Be Loved"

Johnny Green, Edward Heyman, Billy Rose

I wanna be loved with inspiration!
I wanna be loved, starting tonight
Instead of merely holding conversation
Hold me tight

I wanna be kissed until I tingle
I wanna be kissed starting tonight
Embrace until our heartbeats intermingle
Wrong or right

I feel like acting my age
I'm passed the stage of merely turtle-doving
(be careful, be careful, what you do)
I'm in no mood to resist,
And I insist the world owes me a loving

I wanna be thrilled to desperation
I wanna be thrilled, starting tonight
(love me, love me, love me)
With every kind of wonderful sensation
I wanna be loved

I feel like acting my age
I'm past the stage of merely turtle-doving
I'm in no mood to resist
And I insist the world owes me a loving

I wanna be thrilled to desperation
I wanna be thrilled, starting tonight
With every kind of wonderful sensation
I wanna be loved!
