Just the Way You Are
Embrace Unconditional Love: "Just the Way You Are
Lyrics
I never take anything for granted
I appreciate and value everything in my life.
Only a fool maybe takes things for granted
Only a foolish person takes things for granted.
Just because it's here today
Just because something is present now doesn't guarantee its permanence.
It can be gone tomorrow
Things can change unexpectedly or be lost in the future.
And that's one thing that you
Assurance that the speaker won't be a source of concern or uncertainty.
Never in your life ever have to worry about me
Commitment not to change feelings or behavior toward the listener.
If I'll ever change towards you because
Expressing love for the listener.
Baby I love you
Reiteration of love for the listener.
Yeah I love you
Reassurance that the speaker loves the listener as they are.
Just the way you are
Affirmation of acceptance and love "just the way you are."
Don't go changing, trying to please me
Advice not to change to please the speaker.
You never let me down before
Recognition that the listener has always been reliable.
I don't imagine you're too familiar
Speculation about the listener's current absence.
And I don't see you anymore
Noticing the listener's absence from the speaker's life.
I would not leave you in times of trouble
Commitment to stand by the listener in difficult times.
We never could have come this far
Reflection on the journey of the relationship.
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
Willingness to accept both good and bad times with the listener.
I'll take you just the way you are
Reaffirmation of accepting the listener as they are.
Don't go trying some new fashion
Discouragement from trying new trends or changes.
Don't change the color of your hair
Emphasis on maintaining natural characteristics, like hair color.
You always have my unspoken passion
Acknowledgment of unspoken but deep passion for the listener.
Although I might not seem to care
Indifference in appearance but deep caring within.
I don't want clever conversation
Desire for genuine and straightforward communication.
I don't want to work that hard
Preference for an easygoing relationship over hard work.
I just want some, someone to talk to
Desire for someone to talk to without the need for complexity.
I want you just the way you are
Affirmation of wanting the listener as they are.
I need to know that you will always be
Need for assurance of the listener's constancy.
The same old someone that I knew
Desire for the listener to remain the familiar person.
What will it take till you believe in me
Questioning what it takes for the listener to believe in the speaker.
The way that I believe in you
Expressing belief in the listener and the desire for mutual belief.
I said I love you and that's forever
Declaring eternal love and commitment.
And this I promise from my heart
Promising eternal love from the heart.
I could not love you any better
Assertion that love cannot be any better, expressing contentment.
I love you just the way you are
Reiteration of loving the listener as they are.
I don't want clever conversation
Repeating the preference for simple conversation.
I don't want to work that hard
Emphasis on avoiding unnecessary effort in the relationship.
I just want some, someone to talk to
Desire for someone to talk to without complications.
I want you just the way you are
Reaffirmation of wanting the listener as they are.
I want you the way you are
Expressing the desire for the listener as they are.
Don't go changing
Final plea not to change.
