Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before
Don't imagine you're too familiar
And I don't see you anymore
I would not leave you in times of trouble
We never could have come this far
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I take you just the way you are
Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair
You always have my unspoken pa**ion
Though I might not seem to care
I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are
I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew
Ah, what will it take till you believe in me?
The way that I believe in you?
I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
But I couldn't love you any better
I love you just the way you are
(Solo)
I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are
Oh... Yeah....
