Amanda Blank - A Love Song Lyrics

When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
And at the back of my mind I hear my conscious call
Telling me I need a boy who's as sweet as a dove
For the first time in my life I see I need love

There I was giggling about the games
That I had played with many hearts and I'm not sayin' no names
Then the thought occurred, tear drops made my eyes burn
As I said to myself when am I gonna learn

I can feel it inside, I can't explain how it feels
All I know is that I'll never dish another raw deal
Playin' make believe, pretending that I'm true
Holding in my laugh as I say that I love you

Saying no more, kissing you on the ear
Whispering I love you and I'll always be here
Although I always reminisce
I can believe that I found a desire for true love

Floating around inside my soul because my soul is cold
One half of me deserves to be this way
Until I'm old but the other half needs affection and joy
And the warmth that is created by a girl and a boy

I need love
(Got my mind made up)
(Got my mind made up)
(Got my mind made up)

I need love
(Got my mind made up)
I'm a lady
(Got my mind made up)
I need love, I need love, I'm a lady

I had a dream that you and I were both 16
Holding hands after school, we didn't care who would see
You'd tell me that I was pretty and that you'd love me for life
Take care of me forever 'cause you'd make me a wife

When the girls call me up and try to mess with my head
Tell 'em all that if I left you, you'd be better off dead
'Cause you'll never love another, they just don't understand
That your life would be over if I found another mate

You call me up on the phone, we were talking 'til we fell asleep
Without you I think I'd rather be in hell
Life just wouldn't be as fun, it wouldn't be the same
I wanna stay with you forever and even take your last name
'Cause there's no one in my life that makes me feel as good as you

The way we cuddle on the couch
And share the secrets that we do with all the little jokes
That no one else could ever know and the part of me that you can see
'Cause you're the one I show

I know we gotta make it work 'cause baby you're the man for me
Without you by my side my world would be incomplete
And if you ever leave me lonely, boy, my heart would be crushed
You know you touch me so now I know, boy

I need love, I need love
I'm a lady, I need love, I need love
I'm a lady, I need love ï'm a lady
