The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Jamie:
mm-hmm
oh yeah
Why do I feel like my heart is broken
Whenever I surrender my emotions
I thought I could tell you how I feel
Whether good or bad
When I'm happy or sad
Gladys:
Why do I have to be the silent one
Whenever there is something on my mind
I thought that we were partners in this game of love
Why cant I laugh or cry
And shed my feelings deep inside
Chorus:
I wanna be loved by somebody
Who's strong enough for me
I want to be free with my feelings
That's the way it's supposed to be
I'm willing to share my emotions
And give you what you need
Just dont turn away
If I say that I just want to be me
Jamie:
Why am I questioning where you are
Gladys:
It's just because I made a few demands
Remember all the times we cried
And I dried all your tears
Jamie:
And how I held your hand
Gladys:
If you do just understand
Chorus
Gladys & Jamie:
I want to cry tears of joy
And not of pain
I want to share this things that words can not explain
Dont want to go I just need for you to know
That this love is not just sweet but strong
And for you to keep holding on
Cause
Chorus
I wanna be loved by somebody
Who's strong enough for me
I want to be free with my feelings
That's the way it's supposed to be
I'm willing to share my emotions
And give you what you need
Just dont turn away
If I say that I just want to be me
Just dont turn away
If I say that I just want to be me
Just dont turn away
If I say that I just want to be me
