Desperate For Love - Dave Lamar

Verse
I stood there in the silence
Staring at this boy
I could see the anger in his eyes
And he was ready to destroy
His heart was full of hatred
For what he went through in the past
And even at that moment
He was feeling so outcast

Pre-chorus
He's crying out in the rain
So no one could see his pain

Chorus
Cuz he's desperate for love
He needs some help from above
And he is crying out in fear
He needs someone to wipe away his tears
He knows his heart is broken
He needs a healer to come restore it
All he wants is peace in his heart
Should have been loved right from the start

Verse
But it seems her mother's always shouting
And her dad is never home
She always takes the beating
When he gets out of control
She's hungry and exhausted
From working all day long
Because she takes care of her sister
And she has to feed her on her own

Pre-chorus
She's crying out in the rain
So no one could see her shame

Chorus
Cuz she's desperate for love
She needs some help from above
And she is crying out in fear
She needs someone to wipe away her tears
She knows her heart is broken
She needs a healer to come restore it
All she wants is peace in her heart
She should have been loved right from the start

Bridge
She should have been loved right from the start
She never deserved this broken heart
She never deserved this kind of life she's going through
And he needs to feel this loving touch
And someone to say I love you so much
Cuz he's never heard those words

Chorus
And they're desperate for love
He needs some help from above
And she is crying out in fear
They need someone to wipe away their tears
He knows his heart is broken
She needs a healer to come restore it
All he wants is peace in his heart
He should have been loved right from the start

Chorus (with child choir)
Desperate for love
They need some help from above
And they are crying out in fear
They need someone to wipe away their tears
They know their heart is broken
They need a healer to come restore it
All they want is peace in their heart
Should have been loved right from the start

Coda (children only)
Desperate for love
They need some love from above
And they are crying out in fear
They need someone to wipe away their tears
They know their hearts are broken
They need a hero to come restore them
All they want is peace in their hearts
Should have been loved right from the start
