Michael Robert McGuire - To Be Loved Lyrics
Nothing ever works out in your lifeYou’ve never been a bridesmaid, much less taken for a wifeYou got your small apartment, in your small hometownA dead-end job, and no sign of Prince Charming comin’ roundYou’ve always kept your heart locked up and boundAnd there’s no map to find it, and no key to be foundBut I know it’s still beating hard for someoneBut that someone can hardly hear a soundYou can’t be an open book if no one gets to take a lookSomeday someone could really make you smileAnd make all of your waiting worth the whileIs it so wrong to discover someone cares for youTo be strong, yet weak enough to needIn the arms of a man who really wants youA hurtin' heart can heal, given time enoughIf you don’t make yourself so hard to be lovedWeekends are the same most every weekYou hang out with your girlfriends at my bar just down the streetYou see the men walk in, then watch 'em goThey're all the same old strangers that you don’t wanna knowNo one gets to see inside, when all you show them is your prideGirl, what's it gonna take to let it goAnd until you do you’re never gonna knowIs it so wrong to discover someone cares for youTo be strong, yet weak enough to needIn the arms of a man who really wants youA hurtin' heart can heal, given time enoughIf you don’t make yourself so hard to be lovedIs it so wrong to let someone take good care of youTo belong with the man you really needSpend your life with the one who really loves youYour hurtin' soul can heal and still be toughSo don’t make yourself so hard to be loved
