To Be You
Kim Lukas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

To be you
To be you

Everybody needs somebody
Even if it's just a friend
If nobody's there for you
To give a hand then I will lend

I can see confusion in your mind
Open up to me and you will find

You've a right, to be you
To feel good, to feel high, to make your dreams come true
You've a right, to be free
So come on forget all, a big smile's what you need

Life's not easy full of rough and smooth
From start to end
But if you're strong you'll get along
And see that times can mend

Close your eyes and
See what's in your heart
If love is what you find
Then it's a start

To be you
To be you
