Melissa Etheridge - Yes I Am Lyrics

Melissa Etheridge Lyrics

"Yes I Am"

In these days and these hours of fury
When the darkness and answers are thin
Lovers come and check out in a hurry
Shallow and hollow again
Come lay your body beside me
To dream, to sleep with the lamb
To the question your eyes seem to send

Am I your passion?
Your promise?
Your end?
I say, "I am"
"Yes, I am"
"Yes, I am"
"Yes, I am"
I am your passion
Your promise
Your end
Yes, I am

Barring divine intervention
There is nothing between you and I
And if I carelessly forgot to mention
Your body your power can sanctify
Come feed the hunger, the thirst
Lay it down, the beast will die
You can question my heart once again

Am I your passion?
Your promise?
Your end?
I say, "I am"
"Yes, I am"
"Yes, I am"
"Yes, I am"
I am your passion
Your promise
Your end
Yes, I am

Oh

I will stand firm in the tempest
I will ride destiny's trail
To believe when the truth comes up empty
To hold and respect without fail
Come and be one in the motion
A desire they cannot comprehend
Never to question again
For I am your passion
Your promise
Your end
Yes I am
Oh, yes, I am
Oh, yes, I am
Yes, I am
Yeah, eh, eh
Oh, yes, I am
Oh, yes, I am
Yeah, yeah
Yes, I am
Yes, I am
Yes, I am
Yes, I am

Yes, I am
