You Can Know All I Am
Words by Holly Near; music by Jeff Langley
Originally recorded on You Can Know All I Am, reissued on Simply Love: The Women's Music Collection
You can know all I am
Share my life, take my giving
I can't change how I'm living
But you can know all I am

You can know all I am
Watch me grow, know my sorrow
I can't lend and I can't borrow
But you can know all I am

This could be a love in passing
Simple and lonely
Mysterious woman, elegant stranger
Where it's safe and dark inside
But it's much harder to love you
To say, "Love me"
With all my right and wrong
I've been longing to say it all along

You can know all I am
Take my love, I am willing
I can't change how I'm living
But you can know all I am
