I'm Here (From "The Color Purple" Musical)
I don't need you to love me
I don't need you to love
I've got, I've got, I've got my sister, I can't feel her now
She may not be here, but she's still mine
And I know, she still love me
I got my children, I can't hold them now
They may not be here, they're still mine and I know
They know I still love them, eh
I've got my house, it still keeps the cold out
I've got my chair when my body can't hold out
Got my hands doin' good like they're supposed to
Showing my heart to the folks that I'm close to
I got my eyes, though they don't see as far now
They see more 'bout how things really are now
I'm, I'm gonna take a deep breath, eh
I'm gonna hold my head up
I'm gonna put my shoulders back
And look you straight in the eye
Gonna flirt with somebody when they walk by
I'm gonna sing out, sing out, yeah
I believe I have inside of me
Everything that I need to live a bountiful life, eh
With all the love alive in me
I'll stand as tall as the tallest tree
And I'm thankful for each day that I'm given
Both the easy and the hard ones I'm livin'
When most of all
I'm thankful for lovin' who I really am
I'm beautiful, yes, I'm beautiful
And I'm here, yeah
I don't need you to love
I've got, I've got, I've got my sister, I can't feel her now
She may not be here, but she's still mine
And I know, she still love me
I got my children, I can't hold them now
They may not be here, they're still mine and I know
They know I still love them, eh
I've got my house, it still keeps the cold out
I've got my chair when my body can't hold out
Got my hands doin' good like they're supposed to
Showing my heart to the folks that I'm close to
I got my eyes, though they don't see as far now
They see more 'bout how things really are now
I'm, I'm gonna take a deep breath, eh
I'm gonna hold my head up
I'm gonna put my shoulders back
And look you straight in the eye
Gonna flirt with somebody when they walk by
I'm gonna sing out, sing out, yeah
I believe I have inside of me
Everything that I need to live a bountiful life, eh
With all the love alive in me
I'll stand as tall as the tallest tree
And I'm thankful for each day that I'm given
Both the easy and the hard ones I'm livin'
When most of all
I'm thankful for lovin' who I really am
I'm beautiful, yes, I'm beautiful
And I'm here, yeah
