Johnny Adams The Real Me
No one ever saw
Or wanted to see
The real me
I was hiding
And sometimes sliding
From the real me
No one ever found a reason
To take a moment or a season
To find the real me
The real me
No one ever knew
Or wanted to know
The real me
When you stood beside me
And somehow got inside me
And you found the real me
You got through all the surprises
All those defenses and disguises
And found the real me
The real me
Your gentle touch made me strong
Showed me the strength that I had all along
And you made all of those tangled pieces unwind
When you found the real me
The real me
When I look in the mirror
I no longer see
The man I used to be
Now looking back at me
All I ever see
Is the real me
All I ever see
Is the real me
