To Be Loved Lyrics

Curtis Stigers To Be Loved

Mind your manners, watch your weight
Be a good boy, just behave
What's wrong with you?
Settle down, keep your two feet on the ground

Sit up straight, stand up tall
Never falter, never fall
Stay in school, make the grade
Never fail and never fade

Be a hero, be a star
Anything but what you are
Find a girl to possess
Always pay, pursue, protect
Be the master, be a slave
Work your ass into an early grave

But you deserve to be loved
You deserve something real
Time to heal
Time to feel

Daddy's favorite little girl
Dress up in your mommas pearls
Serve us breakfast in his bed
Heard a little kiss on the forehead

You are sugar, you are spice
You are growing up so nice
Paint your nails, paint your face
Paint around the empty space

Find a man that can provide
Try and fill the hole inside
With a family and a home
Tell yourself you're not alone
Keep your memories of yourself
In a shoe box on a closet shelf

But you deserve to be loved
You deserve something real
Time to heal
Time to feel
You deserve to be

You deserve to be loved
You deserve something real
Time to heal
Time to feel

You deserve to be loved
You deserve to be loved
You deserve to be loved
