Take Me As I Am
LOOKING INTO YOUR EYES
I SEE YOUR ANGUST
WONDERING WHAT YOU THINKING OF ME
WHAT YOU FEELING FOR ME
I FEEL YOUR RECENTFORNESS
THE DAYS GO BY US
I KNOW YOU DON"T FEEL ATTENTIVE FOR ME
I TRY TO BE YOUR CLONE
I WANTED TO BE YOUR OTHER HALF
LIKE YOU LIKE ME TO BE
EACH TIME I TRY
I DISAPPOINTED YOU IN SUCH A WAY
THAT WE FALL FARTHER APART FROM EACH OTHER
WE TRY TO BECOME CLOSER ONCE AGAIN
BUT THE DISTANCE AND TIMES NEVER MERGE FOR US
I DRIFT IN A LONELY PLACE
DRIFT AWAY FROM YOU YOUR HEART
I NO LONGER BELONGS IN YOUR HEART
YOU NEED A IMAGINE OF YOU
SOMETHING I CAN"T BE LIKE YOU
EXCEPT ME FOR THE WAY I AM
AND NOT FOR SOMETHING YOU WANT ME TO BE
LOVE ME
LEARN ME
CARE FOR ME
NOT JUDGE ME THE WAY I AM
AND FOR NOT BEING SOMEONE YOU
WANT ME TO BE TO SATISFIED YOU
TAKE ME AS I AM
OR LEAVE ME
