Just The Way You Are
Just The Way You Are
We first met so long ago.
Our first date was at Sonic you know.
You were so giving.
You were always patient with me.
I would read your letters.
Next to you, you made me better.
You had green eyes and beautiful hair in the sun.
We held hands and had lots of fun.
I’m sorry if I was ever selfish.
We both have been through many changes.
I will always be here when you need someone to talk to.
Beyond the horizon, you will always be beautiful.
Just the way you are is all you need to be.
You have always brought the best out of me.
It has taken too long to wake up and see.
We could always share some coffee.
I know we both have moved on.
I don’t want you to ever feel like you're alone.
You have been the best mom in the world.
We’ve had great memories under the clear sky in blue.
Just take one day at a time.
You are the lamp, so never turn out the light.
Thank you for everything you did.
So many years have passed, all never forget.
