You Know Who I Am - Live in Brussels, 1972

I cannot follow you, my love
You cannot follow me
I am the distance you put between
All of the moments that we will be

Ah, you know who I am
You stared at the sun
Well, I am the one
Who loves changing from nothing to one

Sometimes, I need you naked
Sometimes, I need you wild
I need you to carry my children in
And I need you to kill a child

Ah, you know who I am
You stared at the sun
Well, I am the one
Who loves changing from nothing to one

If you should ever track me down
I will surrender right there
I'll leave with you one broken man
Whom I will teach you to repair

Oh, you know who I am
You stared at the sun
Well, I am the one
Who loves changing from nothing to one

I cannot follow you, my love
You cannot follow me
I am not lay if I am not dead
I am not slave or free

Oh, you know who I am
You stared at the sun
Well, I am the one
Who loves changing from nothing to one

Sometimes, I'm gonna need you naked
Sometimes, I'm gonna need you wild
I need you to carry my children in
And I need you to kill a child

Oh, you know who I am
You stared at the sun
Well, I am the one
Who loves changing from nothing to one
