I Can Never Be — текст песни (Johnny Clegg and Savuka)

Shooting star across my sky

I wanted to keep you in my heaven

"i will be anything you want!" I said

"i will live into your dream just to see you smile"

"be my baby -- Ill be your crusade

Your clown-lover, renegade

Ill be anything you want if it will make you stay"

-- oh but it could never be that way cause:



Chorus:

I can never be what you want

I can never be what you want me to be



The great pretender inside your head

A king wearing someone elses crown

Sacrificed who I am so that this heart could be fed

I spend so much time keeping myself underground

You know I love you but I am shaking inside

I know Im not going to leave here alive cause:



Chorus:

I can never be what you want

I can never be what you want me to be

I have sailed this impossible ocean

I have sailed this crazy sea

I can never be what you want,

Whatever you want me to be



There is a spirit rising against what I have become

I have to come out and choose to stay our make my run

Im slowly dying, I have to make a stand

Im coming home, youll have to take me for what I am





Chorus



Be? I can never be!

I can never be what you want!

I can never be what you want me to be!
