Gotta Be Myself

Oh well when you coming home child

So I can be by your side

Sail away

The ocean is foaming

And I will be your only ride

And I just don't want to be (want to be)

Closer to me

But I gotta be myself

And I just don't want to be

Closer to reality

And I'm gonna need your help

So far this world has only hurt me

And all I do is cry

So what

What'cha gonna do then

I wanna get me off my mind

And I just don't want to be (want to be)

Closer to me

But I gotta be myself

And I just don't want to be

Closer to reality

And I'm gonna need your help

Instrumental (dig those strings)

Oh no

When you coming home child

So I can be by your side

So long it's been since I've met you

I want to love you all the time

And I just don't want to be (want to be)

Closer to me

But I gotta be myself

And I just don't want to be

Closer to reality

And I'm gonna need your help
