Michael Gore - Here's Where I Stand [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Here in the dark, I stand before you
Knowing this is my chance
To show you my heart
This is the start
This is the start

I have so much to say and I'm hoping
That your arms are open
Don't turn away
I want you near me
But you have to hear me

Here's where I stand
Here's who I am
Love me...
But don't tell me who I have to be
Here's who I am
I'm what you see

You said I had to change and I was trying
But my heart was lying
I'm not a child any longer
I am stronger

Here's where I stand
Here's who I am
Help me...
To move on but please don't tell me how
I'm on my way
I'm moving now

In this life we come so far
But we're only who we are
Let the courage of love show us the way
We've got the power to stand up and say

Here's where I stand
Here's who I am
Stand up...
And be counting, I'm counting on you
If you're with me we'll make it through

Here's where I stand
Here's who I am
Love me. Love me. Love me
And we'll make it through
Here's where I stand
Baby. Baby. Baby, I'm counting on you
Here's where I stand
Love me. Love me. Love me
And we'll make it through

I'm counting
Ohh I'm counting
I'm counting
I'm counting on you
