Who Am I?

Artist: Abie Rottenberg

Album: Journeys 3

I have trouble with my words,

They don't seem to come out clear.

But I want you all to know me, so I'll try.

I'm asking one small question,

It won't take up too much time,

Can you tell me,

Can you answer,

Who am I?

Oh, I know I'm very different,

By the things I cannot do.

Why, I find it hard to tell you my own name.

So you wonder jut who am I,

As you try to hide your eyes,

But believe me,

You and I,

Are much the same.

Don't you marvel at a sunset,

As the rays shine through the clouds,

And the night begins to take over the sky?

And don't you love the sound of laughter,

And a lively happy tune?

Well then we are not so different, you and I.

And when you see a mighty eagle,

As it spreads its graceful wings,

Don't you wish inside your heart,

That you could fly?

And when hear a crash of thunder,

Don't you tremble out of fear?

Well then we are not so different, you and I.

Yes, I know my legs can't hold me,

And I cannot shake your hand,

And that looking at me makes you feel so strange.

So you wonder jut who am I,

As you quickly pass on by.

But believe me,

You and I,

Are just the same.

have you known the pain of sadness,

And the feeling that it brings?

Yes, I'm sure there's been some times,

You've had to cry.

And that loneliness is worse of all,

I'm sure that you'll agree.

Then we are not so different, you and I.

And do you know the joy of friendship,

Of caring and of love?

Somehow I get the feeling that you do.

The we are not so different,

We are very much the same.

For you do know who I am.

Yes, you do know who I am,

I'm just like you.
