Why should we wait
Till we find out where we're goin'?
The perfect job, the perfect house
The perfect life we've prayed aboutI don't know about you but I think
That we got everything we need
And all I want is to be loved desperatelyLike the sun loves the moon
And the moon adores the shore
And they dance back and forth
Just like you and me
The whole world wants to be loved
Desperately, desperatelyBabe, I believe that everyday is a crossroad
We can take the right fork, take the left
Just as long as we move aheadJust as long as you promise
That you'll always be with me
'Cause all I want is to be loved
To be loved desperatelyLike the sun loves the moon
And the moon adores the shore
And they dance back and forth
Just like you and me
The whole world wants to be loved
Desperately, desperatelyI wanna grow old with you
I wanna have your babies too desperatelyLike the sun loves the moon
And the moon adores the shore
And they dance back and forth
Just like you and me
The whole world wants to be loved
Desperately, desperatelyThe whole world wants to be loved
Desperately
The whole world wants to be loved
DesperatelyDesperately, desperately
