You can now listen to ‘Wanted’ on all streaming platforms! ‘Wanted’ is the lead single of the upcoming EP ‘Superhero’.
Behind the song.
I wrote ‘Wanted’ last summer during my trip to Nashville. I just got out of a relationship and was single for the first time in almost five years. I enjoyed the attention and flirting process, it was nice to feel wanted and get some validation, but I also had this wall around me. I had just found out how much love can hurt when it ends and wasn’t ready to open myself up to it again. It takes time to heal. Sometimes you just want to have fun and keep a safe distance.
It takes a superhero kind of courage to jump in fearlessly. Sometimes you just want to have all the good without the hurt.
Lyrics.
Locking eyes from across the room
Secret smiles meant just for me and you
Brushing shoulders in a taxi backseat
You’re slowly trying to get closer to me
I can feel the tension and I like it
Yeah, I’m not gonna deny it
I just wanna feel wanted, needed
Be everything you long for
I just wanna be desired, admired
Be the one you wanna go the extra mile for
I wanna blow your mind
Even though we both know we would never work
I just wanna feel wanted
Have all the good without the hurt
I can tell you’re nervous by the look in your eyes
I know you tried to kiss me goodnight
But I am gonna make you wait
Cause playing is the best part of this game anyway
I just wanna feel wanted, needed
Be everything you long for
I just wanna be desired, admired
Be the one you wanna go the extra mile for
I wanna blow your mind
Even though we both know we would never work
I just wanna feel wanted
Have all the good without the hurt
If I kiss you now we both know how this will end
I’d fall for you just before you leave again
So let’s just have the best of both worlds
Stop right before we get emotionally involved, yeah
I just wanna feel wanted, needed
Be everything you long for
I just wanna be desired, admired
Be the one you wanna go the extra mile for
I wanna blow your mind
Even though we both know we would never work
I just wanna feel wanted
Have all the good
I just wanna feel wanted, needed
Be everything you long for
I just wanna be desired, admired
Be the one you wanna go the extra mile for
I wanna blow your mind
Even though we both know we would never work
I just wanna feel wanted
I just wanna feel wanted
Have all the good without the hurt
