You Are Loved
John Crockett feat. Natalie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When we touch, does the blood quicken through your veins
When we kiss does it feel like you're born again
When you hold me darling I don't know if it does

If I showed you my heart would you do the same
Am I safe, safe from harm when I call your name
When you're looking at me, what are you thinking of

Could you be loved, tell me boy oh I wish that
You could be loved, don't you know it could be so good
If you ever let somebody, boy you could be loved

There's a place in your heart that I've never been
There's a part of your soul that I've never seen
Now I'm falling for you, boy are you falling for me

You're mixed up, blowing hot, then you're oh so cold
Tell me why you resist, just let it go
You're a mystery and I want to know

Could you be loved (tell me boy oh I wish that)
You could be loved (don't you know it could be so good)
Could you be loved (tell me boy oh I wish that)
If you ever let somebody, boy you could be loved

Could you ever love somebody, with your heart not just your body

Could you be loved (tell me boy oh I wish that)
You could be loved (don't you know it could be so good)
Could you be loved (tell me boy oh I wish that)
You could be loved (don't you know it could be so good)

Could you be loved (tell me boy oh I wish that)
(Could you ever love somebody)
You could be loved (don't you know it could be so good)
(With your heart not just your body)

Could you be loved (don't you know it could be so good)
(Could you ever love somebody)

You could be loved (don't you know it could be so good)
(With your heart not just your body)
