1. I want love but it's impossible, a man like me so irresponsible.
A man like me is dead in places other men feel liberated.
I can't love shot full of holes, don't feel nothing I just feel cold.
Don't feel nothing just old scars toughening up around my heart.

R: But I want love just a different kind,
I want love won't break me down, won't brick me up, won't fence me in.
I want a love that don't mean a thing
that's the love I want, I want love.

2. I want love on my own terms, after everything I've ever learned.
Me I carry too much baggage, oh man I've seen so much traffic.

R: But I want love just a different kind...

3. So bring it on, I have been bruised,
don't give me love that's clean and smooth.
I'm ready for the rougher stuff, no sweet romance I've had enough.
A man like me is dead in places other men feel liberated.

R: But I want love just a different kind...
