Loved By You Lyrics

[Verse 1: Justin Bieber]
I bought a castle in France and it's the same one I built in the sand for you when I was two
I thought I painted a picture of Heaven
But it turns out it's just your room, just your room
I'd run off the end of the earth just to see if you'd catch me
When I know you'd let me fall every time

[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
All I do is wish that I could change myself
I wish that I could change, but (All I do)
Is wait around and hate myself
Oh, I hate the way (I need to be loved by you)
I wish that I could change myself
I wish that I could change, but (All I do)
Is wait around and hate myself
Oh, I hate the way (I need to be loved by you)


[Refrain: Justin Bieber & Burna Boy]
I need to be loved by you (Oh)
I need to bе loved by you (Need to)
I need to be loved by you (Need to, need to, need to)
I need to bе loved by you

[Verse 2: Burna Boy]
I remember when we started datin'
The only ting that you and me was chasin'
The kinda lovin' that they couldn't play with
You know my lovin' is an every day ting, baby
You and me in different places
Textin' and messagin' and talkin' crazy
When I'm with you, I feel like it's a daydream
That's how I know that you would always be my baby
[Chorus: Justin Bieber]
All I do is wish that I could change myself
I wish that I could change, but (All I do)
Is wait around and hate myself
Oh, I hate the way (I need to be loved by you)
I wish that I could change myself
I wish that I could change, but (All I do)
Is wait around and hate myself
Oh, I hate the way (I need to be loved by you)

[Bridge: Justin Bieber]
I walked a thousand miles (You), I've opened every door
It's not enough, it's still your love I'm always looking for
It's just the way I'm wired, whether I'm wrong or right
I've only got one thing on my mind

[Refrain: Justin Bieber & Burna Boy]
I need to be loved by you
I need to be loved by you (Need to, need to, need to, need to)
I need to be loved by you (You)
I need to be loved by you (Need to, need to, need to, need to)
I need to be loved by you

Justin expresses that he feels needy, but he ultimately knows he’ll be let down. Begrudgingly, he doesn’t want to wait for that level of reciprocation to be returned and wishes he could change, but he concedes that’s just the way he is.
