Natalie Wood gave her heart to James Dean
The high school rebel and the teenage queen.
Standing together in an angry world
One boy fighting for one girl.
I wanna be loved like that
I wanna be loved like that
A promise you can't take back
If you're gonna love me
I wanna be loved like that.
Daddy never gave Mama a diamond ring,
But Mama never wanted for anything.
What he gave her, it came from the heart
In a bond that was never torn apart.
I wanna be loved like that
I wanna be loved like that
A promise you can't take back
If you're gonna love me
I wanna be loved like that.
I wanna be loved like that
I wanna be loved like that
A promise you can't take back
If you're gonna love me
I wanna be loved like that.
An old man kneeling alone
Plants his flowers in a garden of stone.
For seven years now she's been gone
But his devotion is still going strong.
I wanna be loved like that
I wanna be loved like that
A promise you can't take back
If you're gonna love me
I wanna be loved like that.
I wanna be loved like that
I wanna be loved like that
A promise you can't take back
If you're gonna love me
I wanna be loved like that.
Repeat 2X
