Lyrics I Want To Be In Love - Melissa Etheridge

I Want To Be In Love

I have climbed the highest mountain
I have sailed across the sea
I have wrestled with my demons
And woke up with only me
I have been around the block
Three times, maybe four
And I think I deserve
Just a little more
In front of total strangers
Won’t you kiss me?
Flowers for no reason
But you miss me?
Oh… I want to be in love
(I want to be in love)
(Want to be in love)
You’re standing on the doorstep
In the rain
Cause you couldn’t wait
To see me once again
Oh… I want to be in love
(I want to be in love)
(Want to be in love)
I have made some big mistakes
And I’ve paid a heavy price
I found a little peace
Between will and sacrifice
I have watched as all my dreams
Went walking out the door
And I think I deserve
Just a little more
In front of total strangers
Won’t you kiss me?
Flowers for no reason
But you miss me?
Oh… I want to be in love
(I want to be in love)
(Be in love)
I’m looking for
A heart of gold
I’m looking for
A hand to hold
A happy end
Strong and kind
Somewhere to rest
My troubled mind
In front of total strangers
Won’t you kiss me?
Flowers for no reason
But you miss me?
Oh… I want to be in love
On Tuesday light the candles
Bring me wine
Wednesday morning
I won’t get to work on time
Oh… I want to be in love
(I want to be in love)
(To be in love)
Yeah, surprise me
As I’m stepping off the plane
Take my hand
As they play our song again
Oh… I want to be in love
I want to be
In front of total strangers
Will you kiss me?
Flowers for no reason
But you miss me?
Oh… I want to be in love
In love, in love, in love
In love
Oh… I want to be in love
I want to be in love
