Don't Try To Change Me

Don't try to change me
Or rearrange me
Don't try it
Accept me for the way that I am
You know I love you
Oh, how I love you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am

I see you look at me
With those wonderin' eyes
You seem to ask yourself why
I do the things the things that I do
Oh, I can't seem to get through to you

So don't try to change me
Or rearrange me
Don't try it
Respect me for the things that I do
You know I love you
No one above you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am

We've been together
Three years tonight
We still can't seem to get it right
Love's ups and downs
Can bring you right back around
But don't use those things
To try and hold me down

Don't try to change me
Or rearrange me
Don't try it
Accept me for the way that I am
You know I love you
Oh, how I love you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am

Don't try to change me
Oh, don't try it, don't try it
Ooh, respect the things that I do
You know I love you
No one above you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am

Being together this way feels right
Boy, I can tell when you hold me tight
Loving is giving
But we've gotta be forgiving
And let me do what I feel is right

Don't try to change me
No, no, no, don't try it
Don't try it
Got to respect the way that I am
Oh, how I love you
But you got to understand

Don't try to change me
Don't try it
The things that I do
No one above you
But you got to understand

Don't try to change me
Don't try it
The way that I am
Oh, how I love you
But you got to understand

Don't try to change me, no
Or rearrange me
The things that I do
You know I love you
No one above you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am

Don't try to change me
You know you can't deny it
Don't try it
So don't you try to fight it
You know you can't hide it
So won't you just face it

So don't try to change me
Or rearrange me
Don't try it
Respect me for the things that I do
You know I love you
There ain't no one above you
But you got to understand
That I am what I am
