Can I Be Me

Can I be me around you

Or must I watch what I say and do

When I share my heart will you still love me

Or will you tear me apart

If you want to know me you must love me

And to love me is to say

You're my friend and I won't judge you, You’re OK

I can't live a lie

I don't even want to try

I’ve got his righteousness

But my flesh gets in a mess

So give me some space

And pray for the choices I must make

Can I be me around you

Or must I watch what I say and do

When I share my heart will you still love me

Or will you tear me apart

If you want to know me you must love me

And to love me is to say

You're my friend and I won't judge you, You’re OK

(Instrumental)

There is something liberating

About unconditional love

When you love me and that way

I know it's from above

And it sets me free

To be who God made me to be

So I’ll be me around you

Don’t have to watch what I say and do

And When I share my heart

You’ll still love me

You won’t tear me apart

And you can know me because you love me

And I can feel it when you say

You're my friend, I really love you

Thanks to Jesus I can love

You’re my friend, I really love you, You’re OK
