Lyric
Don’t go changing to try and please meYou never let me down beforeDon’t imagine you’re too familiarAnd I don’t see you anymoreI would not leave you in times of troubleWe never could have come this farI took the good times, I’ll take the bad timesI take you just the way you areDon’t go trying some new fashionDon’t change the color of your hairYou always have my unspoken passionThough I might not seem to careI don’t want clever conversationI never want to work that hardI just want someone that I can talk toI want you just the way you areI need to know that you will always beThe same old someone that I knewAh, what will it take till you believe in me?The way that I believe in you?I said I love you and that’s foreverAnd this I promise from the heartBut I couldn’t love you any betterI love you just the way you areI don’t want clever conversationI never want to work that hardI just want someone that I can talk toI want you just the way you areOh… Yeah…
