Joan Jett And The Blackhearts - As I Am Lyrics






OOOh, in another place and time OOOh, I will be the vision in your mind

I wanted to be everything you wanted
I wanted to be everything you needed
I wanted what I said
To bring to you laughter
I wanted what I did to make you smile

But in a perfect world
There's no perfection
Cause in a world of dreams
You're only dreaming
I want it to be real
I just can't take it

As I am
Take me as I am
Now I'm only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am

You thought you had me
Tucked inside your pocket
You thought you had it under your control
You can put my smiling picture in a locket
But you can't put a chain around my soul

But in a perfect world
There's no perfection
Cause in a world of dreams
You're only dreamin'
Don't make me feel like I can't make it

As I am
Take me as I am
Now I'm only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am
As I am
Now I'm doing the best I can
Try to understand
And love me as I am

Oooo, in another place and time
Oooo, I will be the vision in your mind

As I am
Take me as I am
Now I'm only flesh and blood
Oh I wish that you could
Love me as I am
As I am
Now I'm doing the best I can
Try to understand
Now I know God has a plan
And I guess that's why she made me
As I am

    Without having heard this album it is easy to underestimate Jett. But this album captures the artist at her most vulnerable and yet transcendent, in my opinion. She asks the listener to overlook her famous image and the rockstar persona to turn our attention to her private world. What she exposes of herself here is profoundly sane and richly human.

    C'est pour moi une chanteuse ou elle garde son Tempo Musical, une certaine nostalgie ^^

    @MsVal321 she has a dvd for her music videos called "Real Wild Child: Joan Jett Video Anthology" which has a small interview before every music video, but it doesn't include the videos of her last album Sinner because it was recorded before it
    She also has a live dvd
