Adored
Miranda Cosgrove Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But maybe you're not (Maybe you're not)
Maybe we'll like it
Let's give it a shot
But let's throw ourselves in
And get soaking wet
Don't just slip our toes in
Don't tell me that you're kind of into me
'Cause I just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
Adored!
I need to feel it, to know that you mean it
From the bottom of your soul
Let me know that I'm adored
It's not enough for you simply to say it
Instead of telling me words and let me know
That your positively mine and
I'm positively yours for sure (For sure)
From the bottom of your heart
Let me know that I'm adored
I'm willing to show you
The thoughts in my mind (My mind)
I'm willing to cut loose
The ropes that I tied
So tell me you're ready
To dig in the dirt
To show me the places
Where you haven't hearted
Don't tell me that you're kind of into me
'Cause I just wanna be, wanna be
Adored
I need to feel it, to know that you mean it
From the bottom of your soul
Let me know that I'm adored (Adored)
It's not enough for you simply to say it
Instead of telling me words and let me know
That your positively mine and
I'm positively yours for sure (For sure)
From the bottom of your heart
Let me know that I'm adored
What's the point in settling for less
(from the bottom of my heart)
What more wanna win and not come second best
(from the bottom of my heart)
So shatter my world don't matter now
because I wanna fall
for my own sake it don't matter if I break

Don't tell me that you're kind of into me
'Cause I just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
