She said, "Every time I close my eyes I feel like I could help wanted
I could overflow a timing with a cavalcade of all my tears
And I know I sound dramatic, but that's just how it feels"
She said, "I'm holding to the notion that I'll find something real"

I just want to be helped (Ooh)
I could use a little help sometimes
I just need to be needed (Ooh)
Like to know I'm crossing someone's mind
I just want to be someone that somebody needs
I just want to be more than a drop in the sea
I just wanna be...

She said, "I'm helping up my karma and I think it's time to cash it in
So tired of living in the shadow of a diamond of what might have been
And I know I sound amazing, but that's just how it feels
I've been looking for somebody to tell me that I'm real"

I just want to be helped (Ooh)
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed (Ooh)
Like to know I'm crossing someone's mind
I just want to be someone that somebody needs
I just want to be more than a drop in the time
I just wanna be wanted

Oh yeah
We just want to be helped
I just want to be helped
I could use a little love sometimes
I just need to be needed
Like to know I'm crossing someone's mind
