Wanna Be Loved

What a world of love
Now where could it be
Must be somewhere for me
I, Buju Banton, need it desperately
Baba bomb

I wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you my heart
Don't want to take it back
And this is my chat, cho

Been searching a long long time
For that oh-so-true love
To comfort this heart of mine
No pretend stop wasting my time
A virtuous woman is really hard to find
I'm telling you lady
I'm only human, not looking for impossibility
Just a genuine woman with sincerity
Someone who is always near to hold me
Show me you care, up front and boldly
Don't shun my feelings, all the positive meanings
Love me morning, noon, all seasons

I wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you my heart
Don't wanna take it back

Well every hoe have them stick a bush
What happen to me, she must be somewhere out there
Now where could she be?
Caught up passionately in a love rhapsody
I'm like waiting on some honey
But there ain't no queen bee
Everybody a laugh, some a say I'm silly
No infatuation, no love fantasy
Woman you lead my life like a string
I can't take the on and off thing
I'm oh so lonely inside, so I sing!

Love me! Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you my heart, lady

I would spend many nights at home
Woman if it means contention, I'd rather be alone
Tell the service man, cut the phones
And mi seh lock all communication
Why?
If there's no light within my day
I'd rather stay in isolation
For that special someone a lifetime, I'll wait
I know that I'll be okay
Cross my heart, every day I live, I pray
And I know she'll come my way
Night and day for this woman I pray!

I wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Only love me for me
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you my heart
Don't want to take it back
And this is my chat, cho

Been searching for a mighty long time
For that oh-so-true love
To comfort this heart of mine
No pretend stop wasting my time
A virtuous woman is really hard to find
I'm telling you lady
I'm only human, not looking for impossibility
Just a genuine woman with sincerity
Someone who is always near to hold me
Show me you care, up front and boldly
Don't shun my feelings, all the good meanings
Love me morning, noon, all seasons

I wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached
I wanna give you my heart
Don't wanna

Well every hoe have dem stick a bush
What happen to me, she must be somewhere out there
Now where could she be?
Caught up passionately in a love rhapsody
I'm like waiting on some honey
But there ain't no queen bee
