As I Am - Anne Murray

I could use a rainbow right about now

A minor miracle, I would not turn down

But human condition’s gotten way out of hand

It’s so hard to be just who I am

I could use some magic to break this spell

A rope or a ladder to climb out of this well

I’m so tired of changing to fit someone else’s plans

I need someone who wants me as I am

As I am, without a single word of compromise

So I won’t have to hide behind some clever disguise

That only works for a while

I want someone who wants me as I am

Maybe on a sunny day without any clouds

A friendly face will step out of the crowd

My future companion who will meet me where I stand

Someone who wants me as I am

As I am, without a single word of compromise

So I won’t have to hide behind some clever disguise

That only works for a while

So if fate wants to give me one more chance

Make it someone who wants me as I am
