Lyrics
As the long long long day fades slowly to night
From unseen shadows there flickers a light
And though my heart pounds with desperate fright
I know that if I had to do it over again
I'd be what I was 'cause I am what I am
Well ain't that the way it's got to be.
And in a world where no one thinks or feels
And questioning answers hide what's really real
Where love and hate come as a package deal
I know that if I had to do it over again
I'd be what I was 'cause I am what I am
Well ain't that the way it's got to be.
{BREAK}
And as I look back over all these years
I know that if I had to do it over again
I'd be what I was 'cause I am what I am
Well ain't that the way it's got to be...
