Wanted Lyrics by OneRepublic
She said, “Every time I close my eyes I feel like I could disappear
I could overflow an ocean with a cavalcade of all my tears
And I know it sounds dramatic, but that’s just how it feels”
She said, “I’m holding to the notion that I’ll find something real”
And I just want to be wanted (Oh)
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed (Oh)
Like to know I’m crossing someone’s mind
I just want to be someone that somebody needs
I just want to be more than a drop in the sea
I just wanna be
She said, “I’m counting up my karma and I think it’s time to cash it in
So tired of living in the shadow of a mountain of what might have been
And I know it sounds dramatic, but that’s just how it feels
I’ve been looking for somebody to tell me that I’m real”
I just want to be wanted (Oh)
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed (Oh)
Like to know I’m crossing someone’s mind
I just want to be someone that somebody needs
I just want to be more than a drop in the sea
I just wanna be wanted
Oh yeah
We just want to be wanted
I just want to be wanted
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed
Like to know I’m crossing someone’s mind
