Loved For Once

I'm opinionated and I speak my mind

I'm called intimidating but they don't see me cry

They'll never understand the fight behind my eyes

I play it off like nothin' bothers me

Like I'm used to automatically

I'm good at overthinking my whole life

Replaying conversations in the middle of the night

When I try to see in color, it's all black and white

I'm not asking for your sympathy, or temporary company

'Cause I want

I just wanna be, I just wanna be loved for once

I want someone to choose me, someone to choose me just because

They'll want me and take me as I am

They'll want me and take me as I am

I know I said I wanted to fall in love

But I won't change who I am just because

They say I'm too much, but I wrestle with feeling enough

So I don't wanna be losing sleep

Waiting for the one that's meant for me

I just wanna be, I just wanna be loved for once

I want someone to choose me, someone to choose me just because

They'll want me and take me as I am

They'll want me and take me as I am

I just wanna feel, I just wanna feel loved for once

I want someone to choose me, someone to choose me just because

They'll want me and take me as I am

They'll want me and take me as I am

As I am, as I am, as I am, I am

Just wanna be loved

Oh, just wanna be loved

As I am, as I am, as I am, I am

I just wanna be, I just wanna be loved for once

I want someone to choose me, someone to choose me just because

They'll want me and take me as I am

They'll want me and take me as I am
