Borrowing from Another Bill

 "Don't go changing to try and please me.
You never let me down before, mmm

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, mmm

I took the good times, I'll take the bad times
I'll take you just the way you are

Look at these kids! 21 October 1977

Don't go trying some new fashion
Don't change the color of your hair, mmm

You always have my unspoken passion
Although I might not seem to care

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm

I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

I need to know that you will always be
The same old someone that I knew

Oh, but what will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you?

I said I love you, that's forever
And this I promise from the heart, mmm

I couldn't love you any better
I love you just the way you are, right

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard, mmm

I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are."
