I want someone to hold me
I want someone to release me
From the prison I placed myself in
From the walls that encase my heart
I want someone to hold me
I want someone to tease me
Let me laugh and smile again
Let me mend my soul again
I want someone to hold me
I want someone to want me
Respect that I am woman
Respect that I am yours
I want someone to hold me
I want someone to love me
Cherish my talents, compassion and courage
Cherish my sorrows, faults and failures


I want someone to hold me
I want someone to release me
I want someone to tease me
I want someone to want me


I want someone to love me
