Here I stand all alone
with no friends to call my own

As they desert me, I remain
As people change, I stay the same

and all i ever wanted was to be wanted
all i ever wanted was to be wanted
all I ever wanted was to be wanted

I need these words to be said
or i might I lose it again
Please tell me that I'm wanted
Please tell me that I'm wanted

Every day is the same day
Every one is in my way
Life's a riddle on repeat
still you're no closer to me

and all i ever wanted was to be wanted
all i ever wanted was to be wanted
all I ever wanted was to be wanted

I need these words to be said
or i might I lose it again
Please tell me that I'm wanted
Please tell me that I'm wanted

and now I wonder why
Life's pleasures passed me by
Stand up and take the fall
I never wanted this at all
