I Wanna Be Loved Lyrics - Billy Eckstine

I want to be loved with inspiration 

I want to be loved starting tonight 

Instead of merely holding conversation 

Hold me tight 

I want to be kissed until I tingle 

I want to be kissed starting tonight 

Embrace until our heartbeats intermingle 

Wrong or right 

I feel like acting my age 

I'm past the stage of merely turtle doving 

(Be careful, be careful what you do) 

I'm in no mood to resist 

And I insist the world owes me a loving 

I want to be thrilled to desperation 

I want to be thrilled starting tonight 

(Love me, love me, love me) 

With every kind of wonderful sensation 

I want to be loved 

I feel like acting my age 

I'm past the stage of merely turtle doving 

I'm in no mood to resist 

And I insist the world owes me a loving 

I want to be thrilled to desperation 

I want to be thrilled starting tonight 

With every kind of wonderful sensation 

I want to be loved
