StayThe Way You Are
I am who I am
Thank God you never surrendered
Because when you brought me home,
Mom and Dad were shocked
I went for walks with your dog
and tried the thing with a tie
But they still had that opinion,
that I'm just a pimp who looses control
The others asked you:
“Does he fit to you? Can he even express himself?”
To stay above water,
I pushed people around in Taxi's
I tried a lot
Copied folders, sorted files
Even if it wasn't part of my orders,
I served my boss coffee
Internship here,
Internship there
Unfortunately I haven't matriculated until this day
Or studied math
For you to like me better
I would have tried everything darling
Chorus:
And then he said to me:
Let the others change
And stay as you are
Just like you are- like you are
Let the others change and stay as you are
I like you how you are
I need you as you are
You are who you are
Love is in your nature
Enough of the rules
Almost everyone tried to shape you
Since you've been born
Business and cash
Fitness and fashion
Are only part of thee torture
Stay as you are because for me
Your appearance is enrichment
And stay stubborn
Don't let them tell you anything
Because your figure is more than perfect
And your hair doesn't need fixing
I am just saying
I come from a different country
Does that suit your culture?
In the beggining,
no one was excited about us two
Forget about the hands on the clock,
Stay in your own lane
You have understood I'm staying,
That's why you're happily letting me go alone
I said to him:
Chorus:
And then he said to me:
Let the others change
And stay as you are
Just like you are- like you are
Let the others change and stay as you are
I like you how you are
I need you as you are
You know all my mistakes
and all detail
Even if I don't say anything
You know what's wrong
I only want that you don't forget:
Let the others change
And stay as you are
Just like you are- like you are
Let the others change and stay as you are
I like you how you are
I need you as you are
