Don't go changing to try and please me
You never let me down before mm----mm
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 mm----mm
I took the good times I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way yo are

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the colour of your hair mm----mm
You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard mm----mm
I just want some-one that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are 

I need to know that you wil always be
The same old some-one that I knew
Oh 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 mm----mm
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard mm----mm
I just want some-one that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are 

Whoa
