Donna Summer - Be Myself Again Songtexte

Let me introduce myself
I'm a woman that youve never seen
You might know me from somewhere else
As someone that Ive never been

I gave everything to play the game
My soul fell apart at the seams
I fell down like a house of cards
When somebody pulled the queen

Cause you could spend your life
Lookin for your own reflection
Time could blur the lines
Between whats real and whats projected

Had I known what I lost
What I gained, what itd cost
Id still give what remains
To be myself again

You must believe me when I say
Dont live someone else's design
Turn it around like a photograph
The writing's been there all the time

Now you can have all these hopes and dreams
The ones I cant use anymore
I dont know what it is you lost
But I hope you got what you came for

Cause you could spend your life
Lookin for your own reflection
Time could blur the lines
Between whats real and whats projected

Had I known what I lost?
What I gained, what it'd cost
Id still give what remains
To be myself again

Sometimes I wanna leave right now
Sometimes I wanna cry out loud
I wanna let it all hang out
But I dont wanna let you down

Sometimes I wanna just lay here
Sometimes I wanna disappear
I wanna show you all my fear
But I dont want to let you down

Cause you could spend your life
Lookin for your own reflection
Time could blur the lines
Between whats real and whats projected

Had I known what I lost
What I gained, what it'd cost
Id still give what remains
To be myself again
To be myself again
