It could never explain your heart
It could never tell you my thoughts
And you want me to change
I can't get used to all you want me to be
To be anyone else 'cuz it's not really me
And I'm not gonna give up myself
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me
And if it's love that we share
Then we can withstand all the obstacles that life brings forth
For who you are who you were and baby who you will be
But you want me to change
Girl I can't get used to all you want me to be
To be anyone else, oh 'cuz it's not really me
And I'm not trying to give up myself
To make your life better, now
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me
And I'm not trying to give up myself
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me
You said, I promise you the stars
And I'm giving you all I can now
You said love is not enough
If your life turns around
In my heart there is room for you
And I'm not trying to give up myself
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me
And I'm not trying to give up myself
To make your life better, now
She said, this is how it is
I got my own life to live
And you can either accept me
Oh, this is who I am, where I live
Oh, oh, oh, this is my world
I'm not trying to change you
Please let me be me, yeah
