To fulfil the need to be who I am in this world

Is all I ask

I can't pretend to be something that I'm not

And I wont wear a mask

Ooh you touch my face with love in your eyes

But will you touch my heart

With the understanding that it takes to realise

I just can't play a part

Oh a fantasy to be true to myself

And make no mistakes

I don't want to need to hold someone else

No matter what it takes

So if you're sure it's love

Just be sure it's love

For this thing called me

For I am what I am

And I have the need to be

I'm not fool enough

To ever think that I could be the master of my fate

But it's up to me to choose my roads in life

Though rocky they may be the ones I take

Oh the ones I take

There's a need to be something more

Than just a reflection of a man

I can't survive in someones shadow

I need my very own little spot to stand

Hey if you're sure it's love

Just be sure it's love

For me and only me

Cos I am what I am

And I have the need to be

Oh just be sure it's love

Be real sure it's love

For me for little old me

Cos I am what I am

I am what I am

And I have the need to be
