I Need To Be Me© 2019 Shawn Gilley, Sheri Gilley
Verse 1 I wake up in a hospital bed With a hammer pounding in my head Fighting through every breath I take But I’m surrounded by a sea of love I’m back to the man that I once was My hands can play the music I want to make Channel So I can’t go back to living in a time where I am barely me Chorus I hate to close my eyes at night Knowing there’s a chance that I might Never have a day like this again I need to be me until the end Verse 2 Even though I can’t take a step I go the chance to see the sunset Sink into the ocean’s slaty sea And I have written so many songs I’ve played for people hours long I’ve lived lots of my leftover dreams Channel So I can’t go back to living in a time where I am barely me Bridge I’ve got an imperfect full of love Complicated yet beautiful Painful yet purposeful life I love it all , and that’s why |
