Being Me lyrics

All along the way there were things to do

Always some other someone I could be

Other things to know, other ways to go

To fly a spirit for the stage to show

It wasn't always easy learning to be me

Sometimes my hidden heart would disagree

Times I walked away, other times I'd stay

To see the drama of my life play

Being me I dared to be myself alone

Sometimes, I loved the things they said

Some things were cold as stone;

it was lonely

Sometimes, sometimes it was blue,

the lights were brilliant

Sometimes, sometimes there was you.

Being me, I laugh seeing now and then

So many things have changed and yet somehow

There will always be a stage, a song for me

Hold the curtain open, It's time to take a bow
