Unconditionally isn't too much to ask
Everything you give me, you know I'm gonna give back
I'm just bein' honest, I want all this

So hold me like a lover and love me like a child
And when I'm inconsolable, oh, just let me run wild
I want to be the one, let there never be another
So hold me like a lover, oh, and love me like a child

Baby, I feel safe when I'm in your arms
It's a peaceful place where I feel I belong
And I'm not afraid to say I need you

So hold me like a lover and love me like a child
And when I'm inconsolable, oh, just let me run wild
I want to be the one, let there never be another
So hold me like a lover, oh, and love me like a child

I'm a walkin' contradiction
It's the truth, it's not fiction
But I don't think that it's too much to ask

To hold me like a lover and love me like a child
And when I'm inconsolable, oh, just let me run wild
I want to be the one, let there never be another
So hold me like a lover, oh, and love me like a child
Hold me like a lover, oh, and love me like a child
