I never thought that I would be understood
And I always thought that life was a job at which I was no good
Sand dollar “ broke apart in my hand today
Surf washed away what I was
An old man said that God had died for what I am
What I am
Saw a man hit his wife in the parking lot
Seems she forgot who she was
So when you tell me that you love me
What do you mean?
I can't take the love I fell when you're holding on to me
And I might break the love you deal when you're holding on to me
When you tell me that you love me
Does it mean that you want me to be what you are?
Or does it mean that you love what I am?
Please won't you tell me
What I am
I can't take the love I fell when you're holding on to me
And I might break the love you deal when you're holding on to me
