Lyrics

I break down in the middle of filling you in on my day

I experience a breakdown while updating you about my day.

Sweetly you touch and say everything's gonna be ok

You comfortingly touch me and assure that everything will be okay.

Then you lead me to the place that I've been drowning

You guide me to a place where I've been struggling or feeling overwhelmed.

And you try to fill me after the drought

You attempt to support me after a period of lack or emptiness.

Now still I'd give almost anything for you toâ?¦

Despite the current situation, I am willing to give almost anything for you to...


Take me, take me the way, take me the way I am

Take me as I am, without any conditions or changes.


And you lead me to the place that I've been drowning

Similar to line #3, you guide me to a challenging place in my life.

Then you try to fill me after the drought

You make efforts to fulfill or complete me after a period of deprivation or scarcity.

Still I'd give almost anything for you toâ?¦

Despite the challenges, I am still willing to give almost anything for you to...


Take me, take me the way, take me the way I am

Accept me as I am, without any conditions or alterations.


You're fading, and it's killing you to keep telling me

You are diminishing or losing strength, and it pains you to repeatedly inform me.

You've got to keep, you've got to keep waiting

You emphasize the necessity for patience; I need to keep waiting.

You've got to keep, you've got to keep waiting

A repetition of the need for patience and waiting.


Yet I have come so far, still I'd give almost anything for you toâ?¦

Despite the distance I've come, I am still willing to give almost anything for you to...

Take me, take me the way, take me the way I am

Accept me as I am, without any conditions or alterations.

Come on take me the way I am

An urging to accept me just the way I am.

The way I am is enough for you

Asserting that my current state or self is sufficient for you.

Take me the way I am

A repetition of the plea to be accepted as I am.
