Joel, Billy - Just The Way You Are Lyrics






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

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

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
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
What will it take till you believe in me
The way that I believe in you

I said I love you and that's forever
And this I promise from the heart
I could not love you any better
I love you just the way you are

I don't want clever conversation
I never want to work that hard
I just want someone that I can talk to
I want you just the way you are

    this album came out in 73 10cc im not in love came out in 74 so they got this sound from billy.

    e.... ....

    @wayouttatune2 No dude, The Stranger came out in 1977. Anyway, I'm not trying to take anything away from either of them, I love both songs. Just noting the similarity.

  72. J.... J....

    he once told me : I'll let him to tell you "I love you just the way you are" for me . I'm not romantic , but I love you . The same night he decided to say goodbye cause we were far. I decided to wait for him ... till now I am waiting for him , I know if I am near him , I know the story would be other . I can't promise if I'll live long but in few days I'll be living in 1 hour of difference and 3 hours of a Flight .It just took us 2 years !!... am so anxious !!

  75. K.... S....

    A couple of things one I hate that they called this soft rock because that's not what it's all about that's stupid radio terminology also I detect that those background vocals might owe something to 10cc I'm not in love could be wrong

    K.... S....

    this came out in 74 10cc came out with i am not in love in 75

  76. c.... n....
