the tommy lasorda experience - i want you to want me (or at least i did) lyrics

i want you to want me
no, i’m not quoting cheap trick
i really do
perhaps some explanation is in order…
yeah!

a lot of people grew up during the great depression
people in their 70s and 80s and even 90s today
there are many people who grew up in that era
who are now very very wealthy, and won’t spend a nickel
these things scar you

i grew up without love
or whatever passes for it when you’re young
oh, my parеnts loved me, i suppose
but that you
usually takе for granted

i wanted another 14_year old to love me back
or another 16_year old. or another 18_year old
but there was no hand_holding, no fumbling kisses
only initials that spent time with mine inside a heart
scribbled there without their owner knowing

it has left me, to some degree, stuck emotionally at 15
i find myself with longings, the longings of a shy 15 year old
simply to hold the hand of someone who has caught my fancy
or rest my head in their lap when i’m tired
it is innocent, and carries the pain of innocence as well
i’ve been in relationships for quite a while now
but like that 75 year old man who mends his overcoat with duct tape
it can be hard to overcome the ghosts of the past

very hard

i’m not so much concerned with having people like me
if i were, l’d probably try harder
but i want to be loved, or at least desired

i spent over a decade falling in love
with those who either rejected me
or never got the chance to

i’ve gotten a little older
and i’ve had people actually fall for me
and for whatever reason
i couldn’t reciprocate

i thought it would be the best feeling in the world
to be on the other side of the equation for once
to be on the inside looking out
and you know what? it hurt almost as bad

what a waste
