Jonathan Richman — Love Me Like I Love lyrics

Lyrics

I want people to love me like I can love
I want people to love me like I love
I want to open up my lunch box
Find a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in there
Just like when I was six years old and someone loved me
Oh loved me, oh loved me
Like I love
Love me like I love
Love me like I love
Well when I was six years old
I never dreamed I would grow up to feel lonely
To feel lonely
Oh love me like I love
Love me like I love
I said love me like I love
Well now when I was six years old
I never dreamed I would grow up to feel isolated
To feel isolated
Love me like I love
I said love me like I love
Love me like I love
Yeah
Love me like I could love
When I was six years old
I never dreamed I would grow up to feel all isolated
