In my earliest memory I'm alone
Looking out of an upstairs window
There's a crowd in the dark with torches and they're singing
And I want someone to love me as I am
More than happiness, more than power
More than tradition, more than fame
More than simplicity, more than money
I want someone to love me as I am
I've fallen in love with the crazy ones
Fallen in love with the super-bright
With the talented and destitute, the cross-dressers and death-wishers
And I want someone to love me as I am
It's easy to love the sides of me that are cute
But the lonely kid got through by being fierce and knowing she was right
Have compassion for the strident, pompous adult
I want someone to love me as I am
I've said Yes to everyone who thought that they wanted me
It's not all bad, I just feel a bit unlucky
I want someone to hold my hand while we're singing in the dark
And I want someone to love me as I am
