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, the show
It wasn't always easy learning to be me
Sometimes my head and heart would disagree
Times I walked away
Other times I'd stay
To see the drama of my life, the 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
