Don't go changing To try and please me You never let me down before 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 Hum, hum... I took the good times I'll take the bad times I'll take 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" That's forever This I promise from the heart Hum, hum... I couldn't love you Any better I love you just the way you are [instrumental interlude] I don't want clever Conversation I never want to work that hard Hum, hum... I just want someone That I can talk to I want you just the way you are...

[extra lyrics (not present in all versions):] Don't go trying some new fashion Don't change the color of your hair You always have my unspoken passion Although I might not seem to care
