What Do I Need to Be Me Songtext
von The 5th Dimension

I look at all the people
As they pass me by and wonder
If they really know what life is all about
They live in a lonely world preoccupied
They only look at me to speak of troubled times
What do I need to be me
If I walk alone will I find my peace of mind?


And every time I see a rainbow hanging in the sky
I feel like walking straight up to the sun
May it street people say that′s kind I've done
Do I have to prove it can′t be done?
What do I need to be me
If I walk alone will I find my peace of mind?

What do I need to be me
To walk proud and feel free?
What do I need to be me
Should I laugh and blow away reality?

Oh, I'd like to sit up on my high seal
And feel the breeze
And watch the daytime turn it quietly tonight
Searching truth the questions of my life
Some day are the answers could be mine


What do I need to be me
If I walk alone will I find my peace of mind?
What do I need to be me
If I walk alone will I find my peace of mind?
