I Want To Be In Love Lyrics

Melissa Etheridge

I have climbed the highest mountain
I have sailed across the sea
I have wrestled with my demons
And woke up with only me
I have been around the block
Three times maybe four
And I think I deserve just a little more
In front of total strangers wont you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh I want to be in love
Youre standing on the doorstep in the rain
Cause you couldnt wait to see me once again
Oh I want to be in love
I have made some big mistakes
And Ive paid a heavy price
I found a little peace between will and sacrifice
I have watched as all my dreams
Went walking out the door
And I think I deserve just a little more
Im looking for a heart of gold
Im looking for a hand to hold
A happy end
Strong and kind
Somewhere to rest my troubled mind
In front of total strangers wont you kiss me
Flowers for no reason but you miss me
Oh I want to be in love
On tuesday light the candles bring me wine
Wednesday morning I wont get to work on time
Oh I want to be in love
Surprise me as Im stepping off the plane
Take my hand as they play our song again
Oh I want to be in love
