Just the Way You Are
Embracing Love's Permanence: Just the Way You Are by Barry White
Lyrics
I never take anything for granted
I appreciate the value of everything in my life.
Only a fool maybe takes things for granted
A wise person understands the importance of not taking things for granted.
Just because it's here today
Just because something exists today doesn't guarantee its presence tomorrow.
It can be gone tomorrow
Things can be fleeting, and one should be aware of their transience.
And that's one thing that you
You can trust that I will never give you a reason to worry about me.
Never in your life ever have to worry about me
My love and commitment towards you will remain constant throughout your life.
If I'll ever change towards you because
My feelings for you won't change; I love you deeply.
Baby I love you
I express my love for you genuinely and sincerely.
Yeah I love you
Reaffirming my profound love for you.
Just the way you are
I accept you completely and without reservation.
Don't go changing, trying to please me
Don't alter yourself to seek my approval.
You never let me down before
You've never disappointed me in the past.
I don't imagine you're too familiar
I acknowledge that I may not fully understand your experiences.
And I don't see you anymore
I miss seeing you, but that doesn't diminish my love.
I would not leave you in times of trouble
I will stand by you during difficult times.
We never could have come this far
Our journey has been significant and meaningful.
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I accept both the joys and challenges we face together.
I'll take you just the way you are
I love and embrace you as you are, with all your qualities.
Don't go trying some new fashion
Avoid changing yourself to fit current trends.
Don't change the color of your hair
Your appearance, including your hair color, is perfect for me.
You always have my unspoken passion
You have my deep, unspoken affection, even if it may not always seem apparent.
Although I might not seem to care
My apparent lack of concern doesn't diminish my inner feelings for you.
I don't want clever conversation
I prefer genuine and straightforward communication over clever talk.
I don't want to work that hard
I'm not looking for a relationship that requires excessive effort.
I just want some someone to talk to
All I want is someone to share my thoughts with.
I want you just the way you are.
I desire you just the way you are.
I need to know that you will always be
I need assurance that you will remain the person I fell in love with.
The same old someone that I knew
Consistency in your identity is essential to me.
What will it take till you believe in me
What will it take for you to have faith in my love for you?
The way that I believe in you.
I believe in you wholeheartedly; I want you to reciprocate.
I said I love you and that's forever
My love is eternal; it will never fade.
And this I promise from my heart
I make a sincere promise from the depth of my heart.
I could not love you any better
There's no way I could love you more than I already do.
I love you just the way you are.
I love you as you are, without any need for improvement.
