When I’m With You I can’t Be Me
Aug 1, 2023
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta sing
And the beasts in the field gotta do their beastly thing
Now here I am, though you can’t see
When I’m with you, I can’t be me
I used to sing my songs at night
I used to dance my heart’s delight
Now I’m just an extra hand
A sullen shade at your command
My dog could fight, now so can I!
I must be me, or I shall die!
Away with you, now I am free
Away with you, now I am me
