I wrote this song from the standpoint of a woman that I love very much and her relationship with her husband over the years.

Wanted

Look around
Everything has changed
Look inside
And you'll see you're still the same
Open your eyes
And tell me the reason
You always walk
You always turn away from me
You make it hard to understand
What it means to be a man

Turn around
Turn back time
Say you love me
Change my mind
Find a way to make it right
When the words are hard to find
Be the love to change my life
Make me laugh
Don't make me cry
I need to be wanted

It used to be
Forever you and me
You used to be
The man of my dreams
Now I see
A world has come between us
What's left to say
Should I go
Or should I stay
If we give it one more try
Would it be all we need
Or should we just move on with our lives
Whoa Oh

Turn around
Turn back time
Say you love me
Change my mind
Find a way to make it right
When the words are hard to find
Be the love to change my life
Make me laugh
Don't make me cry
I need to be wanted

If you'de only look
I know you'de find
The love and life you left behind
Was waiting for you all this time
Too damn blinded by your pride
Now it's gone and you wonder why
Your whole life has passed you by
Whoa Whoa
Yeah Yeah
Oh Oh Ohhh Ohhh...

Turn around
Turn back time
Say you love me
Change my mind
Find a way to make it right
When the words are hard to find
Be the love to change my life
Make me laugh
Don't make me cry
I need to be wanted
By You
