Why must you always try to make me over ?
Take me as I am or let me go
White lilies never grow on stalks of clover
Take me as I am or let me go.
You re trying to reshape me in a moment
In the image of someone you used to know
I won t be a stand-in for an old love
Take me as I am or let me go.
You ve tried to change me ever since you ve met me
Take me as I am or let me go.
If you cannot overlook my faultsforget me
Take me as I am or let me go.
You re trying to reshape me in a mould love
In the image of someone you used to know
But I won t be a stand-in for an old love
Take me as I am or let me go.
