Strangers are so unfamiliar
Gold will never look silver
You will always be you
And I’ll take you as you are

As you are is how I want you
And I want you oh so bad
As you are is how I need you
And I need you more and more
Need you more then I did before

Calendar pages are so unmerciful
I watch them cross the days off
Without my consent
And you stand just as you are

Waking in the morning
Just to see the sunrise
Sounds so nice
If you are as you are

Sleeping with your lovely scent
On the pillow case
Sounds so inviting
If you are as you are

They didn’t like what you created
Said that you were so outdated
Thought that maybe you should change
Who are they to set your range?

I like you as you are
I’ll take you as you are
I want and need you as you are
I need you more then I did before
Wanting never hurt so bad
Needing never seemed more sad
But being used never felt so good

As you are
I’ll take you as you are
Take me for who I am
Don’t try and change me
It’s not worth it
I like being me
And I like seeing you
Just as you are
