Lyrics
We Were Born To Be Loved
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I could shout from a rooftop how I really feel
Do you really want to know? Do you really care?
I could silently scream so you never hear
Somebody said, You must rise above it all
We were born to be loved
How the screaming changes
When the meaning hits your ears
Do you really? Do you really want to know?
Can you count the reasons why we have so many fears?
Somebody said, You must rise above it all
We were born to be loved
Somebody said, Read the writing on the wall
We were born to be loved
A big heart, lonely eyes
A child plays with toys soon to realize
To stop playin', to bottle up inside
'Cause all he wanted was love
He remembers how well nobody cared
He was alone with everybody there
He took a chance, he got outta there
But all he wanted was love
The mouth of the fool, a whip on his back
He's got the scars to prove it
A broken heart, a matter of fact
But he knows how to use it
Happy endings are not just for TV
Broken hearts don't lose one piece of the puzzle
And The Beatles said, all you need is love
I could point the finger
But there's too much inside here
Somebody said, You must rise above it all
We were born to be loved
Somebody said, Read the writing on the wall
We were born to be loved
Take it a break, y'all
