As I Am — текст песни (Joan Jett and The Blackhearts)

(Jett-Child)
OOOh, in another place and time
OOOh, I will be the vision in your mind
I wanted to be everything you wanted
I wanted to be everything you needed
I wanted what I said
To bring to you laughter
I wanted what I did to make you smile
But in a perfect world
There`s no perfection
Cause in a world of dreams
You`re only dreamin`
I want it to be real
I just can`t take it
As I am
Take me as I am
Now I`m only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am
You thought you had me
Tucked inside your pocket
You thought you had it under your control
You can put my smilin` picture in a locket
But you can`t put a chain around my soul
But in a perfect world
There`s no perfection
Cause in a world of dreams
You`re only dreamin`
Don`t make me feel like I can`t make it
As I am
Take me as I am
Now I`m only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am
As I am
Now I`m doin` the best I can
Try to understand
And love me as I am
Oooo, in another place and time
Oooo, I will be the vision in your mind
As I am
Take me as I am
Now I`m only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am
As I am
Now I`m doin` the best I can
Try to understand
Now I know God has a plan
And I guess that`s why she made me
As I am
