Love Me for What I Am

I wore the clothes you liked You said they gave me that look I even tried to like the food I know you like to cook I parted my hair on the left I carried your arm on the right I slept late in the morning And I stayed out late at night. I can't give any more of my soul away And still look myself in the mirror everyday I can't change any more of what makes me be myself And still have enough left not to be somebody else I'm not demanding as a man Just asking you - love me for what I am. I tried hard not to say the things you don't like to hear And when to you it was apropos I nibbled on your ear I opened the door up for you I kept my big mouth shut Well I've been going down While you've been going up.
