I Wanna Be Loved
Yearning for Love: Michael Feinstein's Soulful Quest
Lyrics
I wanna be loved with inspiration!
I desire to experience love that is filled with inspiration.
I wanna be loved, starting tonight
I want to be loved, and I want it to begin tonight.
Instead of merely holding conversation
Instead of just engaging in casual conversation, I seek a deeper connection.
Hold me tight
Hold me tightly, indicating a desire for emotional closeness.
I wanna be kissed until I tingle
I wish to be kissed to the point of feeling a tingling sensation.
I wanna be kissed starting tonight
I want to be kissed, and I want it to start tonight.
Embrace until our heartbeats intermingle
Desire to embrace each other until our heartbeats become intertwined, regardless of whether it is considered right or wrong.
Wrong or right
Expressing a willingness to be held tightly, acknowledging potential uncertainties (wrong or right).
I feel like acting my age
Feeling the need to act in accordance with one's age.
I'm passed the stage of merely turtle-doving
Moving beyond the stage of engaging in superficial affection.
(Be careful, be careful, what you do)
A cautionary note, emphasizing the importance of being careful in actions.
I'm in no mood to resist,
Expressing a lack of inclination to resist romantic advances.
And I insist the world owes me a loving
Insisting that the world owes the speaker a reciprocated love.
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
Expressing a desire to be thrilled to the point of desperation through love.
I wanna be thrilled, starting tonight
Wanting to experience thrill and excitement, and desiring it to begin tonight.
(Love me, love me, love me)
Repetition of the plea to be loved intensively.
With every kind of wonderful sensation
Seeking love accompanied by various wonderful sensations.
I wanna be loved
Reiteration of the strong desire to be loved.
I feel like acting my age
Reiterating the feeling of wanting to act in accordance with one's age.
I'm past the stage of merely turtle-doving
Affirming the transition beyond superficial expressions of love.
I'm in no mood to resist
Reaffirming the lack of inclination to resist romantic advances.
And I insist the world owes me a loving
Reasserting the belief that the world owes the speaker reciprocated love.
I wanna be thrilled to desperation
Reiterating the desire to be thrilled intensely through love.
I wanna be thrilled, starting tonight
Expressing the urgency for the thrill and excitement of love to begin tonight.
With every kind of wonderful sensation
Desiring love accompanied by a variety of wonderful sensations.
I wanna be loved!
Final repetition and emphasis on the strong desire to be loved.
