I remember when
I was afraid to really speak my mind
So many times
I would pretend
Everything was working out just fine
Though I hurt inside
But you're the gentle voice that healed me
The reflection of my soul, I can't hide
Who I am
You always loved me just for
Who I am
(For who I am)
You were always there to
Understand
And when I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud of who I am
(For who I am)
Hey, yeah
Hey, yeah
I was alone
I always felt so out there on my own
Never at home
With myself
Or, for that matter, anybody else
I just didn't know
That you would be the inspiration
You're the one who helped me find
(You helped me find)
Who I am
You always loved me just for
Who I am
(For whom I am)
You were always there to
Understand
Oh, when I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud
You're the reason, the one
Who was there for me
In my darkest hour
You taught me to believe
In who I am
You always loved me just for
Who I am
(For who I am)
You were always there to
Understand
When I was in doubt
You taught me to be proud
Of who I am
(For who I am)
Of who I am
