You don’t know what you got so you just give it away
To anyone who’s looking
Makes your heart want to stop
When he refuses to stay

So save your love for somebody who earns it
Don’t cave because all the wait’ll be worth it
Don’t be something you’re not
'Cause you’ll be running in place

Feel like you might come undone
Well, you’re not the only one
'Cause we all just wanna be wanted
Wanna to be all somebody needs
Yeah, we’re all just looking for something
That gives us a reason to believe

That no matter what you’re going through
You hold on to the key
Yeah, we all just wanna be wanted
Lo if you’re wanted. Let me hear you say

Yeah, you’re beautiful
Let everybody know
It’s indisputable

You don’t know what it’s like
To have a place called home
Getting pulled in all directions
And since your parents gave up
You were left with nowhere to go

Feel like you might come undone
Well, you’re not the only one, yeah
'Cause we all just wanna be wanted
Wanna be all somebody needs
Yeah, we’re all just looking for something
That gives us a reason to believe

That no matter what you’re going through
You hold on to the key
Yeah, we all just wanna be wanted
Lo if you’re wanted let me hear you say

Yeah, you’re beautiful
Let everybody know
It’s indisputable

So save your love
For somebody who earns it
Don’t cave because all the wait’ll be worth it

'Cause we all just wanna be wanted
Wanna be all somebody needs (all somebody needs)
Yeah, we’re all just looking for something
That gives us a reason to believe
That no matter what you’re going through
You hold on to the key
Yeah, we all just wanna be wanted
Lo if you’re wanted let me hear you say

Yeah, you’re beautiful
Let everybody know
It’s indisputable

So save your love for somebody who earns it
Don’t cave because all the wait’ll be worth it
