I want to love somebody
With a wide-eyed innocence
No shame, no blame, no worry
'Bout where my heart has been
Lay back let go completely
Like I did when I was a kid
Chorus: I wanna be the child in me
An open book, an easy read
Wearin' my feelings on the inside out
Can't be afraid what people say
Live what you love, love every day
With every beat be a little more childlike
Gotta get your heart right
Gotta get your heart right
You can't love everybody
Everybody can't love you back
If you think that time is money
Try to buy one minute back
You wasted it on another
Who wouldn't let you be yourself
Repeat chorus:
Bridge: You gotta get your heart right
Up against the right heart
When you feel the sparks fly
Then you're gonna know why
Repeat chorus:
I want to love somebody
With a wide-eyed innocence
