Oh To Be Loved

He wants to be the centre of attention and adored
He hates not to be liked, in his nightmares he’s ignored
He sleeps around with many girls to increase his self worth
Without them he’d wonder what his meaning is on this earth

Oh to be loved, I want to be adored
All eyes on me, I don’t want to feel ignored

If a negative remark was ever made towards him
He’d dwell on it for hours but in public he’d just grin
To him life is just one enormous competition
The loser hides away and the winner gets recognition

Oh to be loved, I want to be adored
All eyes on me, I don’t want to feel ignored

He’s never look at what it is that really makes him happy
Does public recognition mean more then friends and family?
He needs to learn a way to fall in love with him self
Only then deep in side will his heart will be in good health

Oh to be loved, I want to be adored
All eyes on me, I don’t want to feel ignored

One day I pray he finds what really makes him smile
Then his eyes will open up to see further down the Nile
He’ll see that many things can bring him the feeling of fulfilment
Then the love of just one special person will make him feel content

Oh to be loved, I want to be adored
All eyes on me, I don’t want to feel ignored
