Lyrics

Don’t go changing, tryin’ to please meYou never let me down beforeI don’t imagine you’re too familiarAnd I don’t see you anymore
I would not leave you in times of troubleWe never could have come this far, no LordI took the good times, I’ll take the bad timesI’ll take you just the way you are
Don’t go trying some new fashionDon’t change the colour of your hair, hey thereYou always have my unspoken passionAlthough I might not seem to care
I don’t want clever conversationDon’t want to work that hard, no loveI just want someone, someone to talk toI want you just the way you are
I need to know that you will always beThe same old someone that I knewWhat will it take ’til you believe in me?The way I, I, I believe in you, hey
I, I said I love you, that’s foreverThis I promise from my heart, oh loveI could not love you any betterI love you just the way you are
I don’t want clever conversationI don’t want to work that hard, no loveI just want someone, someone talk toI want you just the way you are
I want you the way you are(Love you just the way you are)Don’t go changing(Love you just the way you are)
