Just The Way You Are - Billy Joel

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

Don't go tryin', some new fashion,
Don't change the color of your hair, mmmmm
You always have my unspoken passion,
Although I might not seem to care,

I don't want clever conversation,
Never want to work that hard,
I just want someone that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be,
The same old someone that I knew.
Ah, 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.
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.
I just want someone that I can talk to,
I want you just the way you are.

  1. On the run up to our wedding, I thought it was difficult to think of a song for our first dance. Chose:
    Sonny And Cher - I got you babe.

    You might be interested in my blog, as I have done a blog post to do with love songs. You like some that I didn't think of actually.

    I wasn't sure if you are thinking of first dance songs, or songs for during a ceremony that is eg in a hotel. If it's the latter, you might want something more calming and acoustic.
