Someone to care, 
Someone to share, 
Lonely hours 
And moments of despair, 

To be loved, to be loved! 
Oh, what a feeling, 
To be loved! 

Someone to kiss, 
Someone to miss, 
When you're away 
To hear from each day. 

To be loved, to be loved! 
Oh, what a feeling, 
To be loved! 

Some wish to be a king or a queen, 
Some wish for fortune and fame, 
But to be truly, truly, truly loved 
Is more than all of these things! 

Someone to kiss, 
Someone to miss, 
When you're away 
To hear from each day. 

To be loved, to be loved 
Oh, what a feeling, 
To be loved!
