Melissa Etheridge - To Be Loved Lyrics

Welcome to the planet earth
Welcome to the heroes fall
This is a thing called birth
The forgetting you knew it all
This is called your first step
This is called your first time
This is called your first break
The one that locks your mind
The one where you thought you had died
The one where you screamed and cried

[Chorus:]
I'm still waiting to be loved
I'm still hoping there's enough
Constant wanting to be loved
To be loved to be loved to be loved

Welcome to the race of rats
Welcome to eternal blame
The key is to stay asleep
The trick is to play the game
But don't let them see you cry
Cover the hole inside

[Chorus]

Welcome to the planet earth
Welcome to the heroes call
This is a thing called birth
Come on remember you knew it all
There's no love from someone else
If I can't love myself

And I'm still waiting
