Take me as I am
Someone you don’t know
Even in the dark
You may not be sure

Take me while you can
I can see you standing in the smoky entrance
Giving up your good intentions

Leave the shadows dancing
Dancing on their own
Let the moment free you now
And leave it all behind you
I’ll know where you’ve gone
Let the world go on

Take me as I am
I may disappear
Fade into the night
Lighter than your thoughts

Take me while you can
Never knowing who or what you are until you’re
Living with the unfamiliar

Leave the shadows dancing
Dancing on their own
Let the moment free you now
And leave it all behind you
I’ll know where you’ve gone
Let the world go on

There’s a place where fear won’t find you
Where your secret dreams remind you
This is all you have to know
And this is all you have to go on

Everything you have inside you
Everything you need to guide you
This is all you have to know
And this is all you have to go on

Take me as I am
Someone you could know
Even as we speak
You could change your mind
Take me while you can
Even if you shine a light into the mirror
You won’t see me any clearer

Leave the shadows dancing
Dancing on their own
Let the moment free you now
And leave it all behind you
I’ll know where you’ve gone
Let the world go on
Take Me As I Am (cont’d)
