I Want Love Sheet Music Elton John

Lyrics I Want Love Elton John

I Want Love

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

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

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

So bring it on, I’ve 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

“I Want Love” is a 2001 song by Elton John, co-written with Bernie Taupin. It was released as a single from his Songs from the West Coast album.
The song reached the top ten in Canada and the United Kingdom. In the US, “I Want Love” reached No. 110 on the Billboard Hot 100’s “Bubbling Under” chart and number six on the Adult Contemporary chart. The song also featured in an advert for Royal Mail, in which John starred.
“I Want Love” was nominated for a Grammy award in 2002 for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance.

The music video was shot with the actor Robert Downey Jr. walking through Greystone Mansion and lip-syncing the song. Video director Sam Taylor-Wood shot 16 takes of the video and used the last one because, according to John, Downey looked completely relaxed, and, “The way he underplays it is fantastic”.
“I Want Love” is included as the second song in the soundtrack of the 2019 film Rocketman.
