I Want to be Adored
I have a nice life
Great kids
Beautiful home
A quality situation
But I want to be adored
I really think I’ve earned it
I work really hard
I’m in great shape
I mean I can run for miles
But I want to be adored
I’ve asked
I’ve tried
I’ve really put it out there
And looked deep inside
But I want to be adored
So where did it go?
Was it ever there?
I mean the adoration
The I love you more than I can even imagine
It must have been
And I want it again
To be adored
So how do I get it back?
Who do you call?
Where do you look?
Is there a secret sauce?
Well it’s right there
Right in front of your nose
But you have to grab it
And make the world listen
Especially when the world
Is a universe of one
Hear me sweetheart
I want to be adored
It’s work
It’s a job
A really hard job
But one that many have accomplished
So in the end
When the work is done
If it’s all just right
Then you’ll get it back
And you’ll once again
Be Adored
