Manfred Mann's Earth Band - You Are - I Am lyrics

She had something to confess to

But you don’t have the time so

Look the other way

You will wait until it's over

To reveal what you’d never shown her

Too little much too late

Too long trying to resist it

You’ve just gone and missed it

It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing

Begging for so much more

Than you could ever give

And I don’t want you to adore me

Don’t want you to ignore me

When it pleases you

And I’ll do it on my own

I have played in every toilet

But you still want to spoil it

To prove I’ve made a big mistake

Too long trying to resist it

You’ve just gone and missed it

It's escaped your world

Can you see that I am needing

Begging for so much more

Than you could ever give

And I don’t want you to adore me

Don’t want you to ignore me

When it pleases you

And I’ll do it on my own

I’ll do it on my own
