Lyrics
WHO I AM
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP), Copyright 2011
When I look at myself in the mirror
I wonder if anyone knows the real me
People take for granted, I'm just what they see
But I'm like a chameleon with a hundred personalities
Though when it comes to you
I don't know which one to choose
Chorus:
'Cause (But) I don't really know who I am
It's so hard, so hard
When I don't even know where I stand
And so far
All it's got me is a broken heart
I've tried to be someone else for so long,
That I wondered if I'd ever find myself again
Then you came along, and I finally found a friend
Who didn't care how I dressed, or if my hair's in a mess
And that's when I really knew
When it comes to you
I know what I should do
Bridge:
I want you
To love me for me
With all my silly jokes and all my crazy dreams
I want you
To find paradise
In my arms tonight....Tonight
Chorus (final)
Then you can really know who I am
And that's hard, so hard
'Cause I don't always know where I stand
But right now, I know I have a happy heart
'Cause you really know who I am
And that's hard, so hard....
