Lyrics
Like a fish plucked from the ocean
Tossed into a foreign stream
Always knew that I was different
Often fled into a dream
I ignored the raging current
Right against the tide I swam
But I floated with the question
Who will love me as I am?
Like an odd, exotic creature
On display inside a zoo
Hearing children asking questions
Makes me ask some questions too
Could we bend the laws of nature?
Could a lion love a lamb?
Who will see beyond this surface?
Who will love me as I am?
Who will ever call to say "I love you"?
Send me flowers or a telegram?
Who could proudly stand beside me?
Who will love me as I am?
Like a clown whose tears cause laughter
Trapped behind a painted mask
Even seeing smiling faces
I still feel I have to ask
Who would want to join this madness?
Who will change my monogram?
Who will be part of my circus?
Who will love me as I am?
Who will ever call to say "I love you"?
Send me flowers or a telegram?
Who could proudly stand beside me?
Who will love me as I am?
