I Believe I'm Myself Again

Janis Ian

Blue sky by the ocean
I got a bluebird singing freedom
and I'm happy to be living
I believe I'm myself again

No tears to cry him
No desire to linger here beside him
Without him
I believe I'm myself again

I got a whip'o'erwill, he sings the blues
I got honeybees, and roses too
and they don't sing the way you do
I believe I'm myself again

Thanks to all the friends
who stood by me
when you were standing still
Now I've got perspective on the situation
and it makes me ill

How could I have loved you for so long?
I know I enjoyed you,
but how could I have liked you?

Instrumental

So thank you
God bless you
Sleep well tonight
You made me cry
but I'm better
without you
I'm believe I'm myself again
